30 places along 30a 7ft drawing - want your suggestions!

**shanteru** · 11-08-2009, 03:30 PM

Afternoon!
I will soon be making a start on a 7ft koob/illustration using 30a as my new theme. It will read like an illustrative map drawn in my style. The plan is to cover 30 cool or interesting areas along 30a. These could be buildings, signs, an object......etc

I'm asking for a little help from you all.
All you need to do is post your suggestions below. For those who post some suggestions. I will make your names appear in the final illustration, which will be shown off in the area next year!

Copy this below, add your suggestions (you dont need to fill in all 30) and reply to this thread with your answers and name as you would like it to appear in the drawing.

The Hammock at the Seagrove Villa's and Motel.
The Neon Sign at the Seagrove Villa's and Motel.

Can't wait to see the finished project. How cool!

**JustBeachy** · 11-09-2009, 12:04 PM

Sowal & Blue Mountain Beach beach cam locations

What a cool idea, btw!

**rheffron** · 11-09-2009, 05:30 PM

Don't forget that wooden Fisherman on the second floor deck in Seaside.

**JustBeachy** · 11-09-2009, 05:43 PM

Yes! Major landmark for my kids.

I think dunelaker summed it up pretty well but I think I might replace some of the less known lakes with some local business. B&A, Stinky's Etc.

Oh, I agree. Those were just a quick list while storm watching. I'd add Old Florida Fish House. Will illustration be limited to just 30 images? Perhaps some of the lakes will be background to other landmarks. Like how can the bike path not be in the picture? It runs past most of the dune lakes and many known landmarks. Some may be obscure or never noticed by some. I personally like the view of the gulf through the access while stopped at 395 and 30A. That is the first view some have of our beautiful gulf and beaches along 30A. A sunset from Bud and Alley's is also a landmark view.

Wow!
So many great locations! Really looking forward to getting started on this piece !

**beasette** · 12-04-2009, 11:40 AM

Really cool idea! After you're done it would be really neat to "shrink" it and put it on tshirts!

It may have to go on as strips across a t-shirt, to get more of the drawing/detail on it!
