This illustrative sculptural piece details our family road trip to South Padre. While my brother lingered in the house a little longer, his hair freshly wet from a shower, my mom prepared the directions on our family GPS nicknamed “Mary,” and my dad began to stuff our belongings into the trunk. My sister and I readied our DVD players, making last minute movie selections, only to end up putting our electronics aside, eagerly talking about the sites around us and singing Avril Lavigne from the backseat. To this day, South Padre remains my favorite family vacation.
