Mapmaker – personal photographic assignment

Although Phil Arnold is 93 years old, numerous times every day he climbs up and down the steep set of stairs leading to the second floor room of his home where he has drawn maps for over four decades. Carefully drawn by hand these maps carry the guarantee of a refund if you find a road not listed on one of them. However, if you look closely you will find a few roads that don’t exist and oddly are named after his family. This protects from his maps from plagarism and shows his keen sense of humor. The twinkle in his eyes belies his age.
