Spending Map

Work in progress: I have added some of my billing addresses to the base map, and I am animating the flow of money from us to them. Still working out the basics. I am using leaflet to render the map, and I borrowed some stock SVG icons as placeholders. The final goal would be to visually see a years worth of activity with accurate volume distinction.

I could see this being useful if you wanted to shop local and look for evidence of you behavior actually changing.

Will need to learn how to usepelias for performing your own geocoding.
