Lake Winni Treasured Maps

Call of the Isle · 07-24-2014, 02:24 PM

We recently purchased a lovely map of Lake Winnipesaukee and wanted to share the site with members. Our map is 16" x 32" printed on canvas. Larry paints the original to look like a treasure map. (We're on first-name basis as he and I have exchanged many emails!) Delightful man! I was so pleased that I just ordered a map of Lake Anna in Virginia for our daughter. Anyway, I told him I would tell everyone about his site. Even if you do not choose to order a map - and he has many of them - his story is quite interesting. Enjoy!

You're too funny! Actually he puts geese & herons & other indigenous species on his maps, with shadows so you can tell the time of day. Too small to see on the picture are small fish and one tiny mermaid which he hides in the shallows. Kids have fun finding them.

I love old maps and lake winni. Would buy this in a minute if the geese were not all over it. One in the corner? Sure. That many, afraid not.

If that is an option, I am open.

I agree, the geese take away from the map...one man's opiinion. Also, what is with the plane?
