Default Inquiring Minds Want To Know

When I date my layouts, I always add a location to the layout. Not because we are always visiting some place new or have the travel bug, but because we are always moving every 1-2 years. I want my family to look back and say "oh that's from when we lived in DC", or "this was taken at Craig Drive" Even when we talk about places/moments, we always go by which house we were living at during that time.

So what about you: Do you just date your layout or do you also include your location of the photos?

I've only dated, unless it's a vacation. We haven't lived anywhere else... if I was in your shoes, I probably would... hard to remember off the top of the head where you were in what year, at least it would be for me.

I just date them and only add a location if we are on vacation or somewhere different / interesting.

Great idea though, for people that move a lot.

location too, usually, but sometimes I don't if it's clear where we were. We've also been moving every few years so it helps

I add dates on every page of my yearbook(s). And when I'm scrapping a vacation album, I only add a date on the first page of that day.
I mention the location in my journal 90% of the time.

I generally only include the location if it isn't obvious to me.

Yes, I add the date and location too, but only on the first page of (say a 4 page LO or PL).

I always thought everyone did this. I was commenting in the gallery this weekend and noticed not a lot of layouts with locations. That's why I got to wondering what "normal" scrappers do because I didn't think I fell within that category!

I'm glad my question could inspire you to add the location to your pages!!

That makes sense!

I try to include date and location, even if that's the only journaling on my page because to me, those are some of the most important details.

I usually include the location in my journaling. I try to always remember to date my pages too.

I almost always include a month & year but rarely the location. We're usually at work, home, or school and you can generally tell that in the pic so it's never occurred to me before to include it on the page.

Location only if it's not at our house. We've lived here coming up on 18 years, so it would be redundant to me.
