I just got my poster framed and hung at the river 2 weeks a ago. It was one from the batch that the Lloyd brothers reproduced maybe 15 years ago. My original from the 70s is still hanging in my garage.
Classic poster.
Been looking for one, where can I get one these days?

Good luck, someone else has run a batch of them too. My friend in Marina Manor has a new one hanging in his place but it's not nearly as sharp as the original of the Lloyds effort.

I'm always amazed that people think the name of the poster "Ups and Downs" has to do with the boat being a flat bottom. hahahaha

Just remembered, we almost bought the place right behind Rick, the brick house with the deck. It's right next to some other friends. I really wanted it because of it's location and because I could look out and see my folks old place but....wife didn't like it.

Then you know Mike and Kelli. She bakes killer cookies, and my wife was buying them made in the shape of her business card. She also made some for us as a surprise when our granddaughter was born last year. She’s a sweetheart.

We also looked at the place across the street from you guys, single wide with a storage shop at the rear. I think it had sun deck too.
