Can anyone post a good pix of bathrooms at Lake Sumter?
 
I am painting pictures for our new house in Hadley and I am up here in Ohio. I have one image of the colorful bathrooms or changing rooms at Lake Sumter Landing and would love some more or another one to copy. Also any really great pictures of anything in TV if you care to share. I am a lot of trouble!

I hope this is an O.K. request and the thread police don't get me. It is pretty selfish.

Hugs and thanks in advance.

GracieGirl.

I suppose you will need pictures of both the men's and the women's bathrooms? I do not remember the men's public restroom at Lake Sumter Landing being all that colorful inside??

OH DEAR. I must be asking for the wrong thing. There is a series of small connected "buildings" in shades of pastel near Lake Sumter Landing. I assumed that they were bathrooms, made to look like cabanas or changing rooms. Maybe I have their function wrong. They are like a series of four or so mini "row houses" each with a different color and with contrasting window shutters. On the trolley tour, the leader said it was one of the most photographed places in TV.

I really don't want a picture of inside a bathroom, but hugs to you Tal. You are the greatest!! :bigthumbsup:

Hi Gracie,
Maybe these picture sites posted by VK earlier this year will help you find something to paint.

They are not all about the Villages, but some qualify and they are taken by residents and just amazing in many respects. Enjoy.

P.S. The cute little cabanas, are bathrooms. Still cute, and make a good picture.

OH MY GOSH! I don't know which to choose!

I don't feel quite as guilty now asking for this because anyone would enjoy these astounding pictures!!! How can I thank you once again, my new friends. You are the best!

Just keep posting. I think everyone will love this.

If only my inadequate hands and eyes can capture some of this beauty.

roflao I didn't know those were public bathrooms. I just thought they were cute little buildings. Learn something new every day.

There's public restrooms in LSL?

I just ducked into Starbucks when the time was right.

Those pics from Villages 07 are from a website called Serbian Wunderland!

I wonder how she found these?? I got this which is a not very good picture of them via a Google search. http://flickr.com/photos/graustark/494694646/

Guess this is art which is trying to make some kind of statement about TV??

You are right. IMHO that http://flickr.com/photos/graustark/494694646/ is not a good picture for painting purposes. It is way too fuzzy.

The photographer is right that the doors that this pictures shows go nowhere. They do not even open but are part of the wall.

I walked by there late this morning with my dog Sport.

When LSL was first build one of the designers -- not a family member--was asked what his favorite building was at LSL. He said the bathrooms that are being discussed. This is true!!!!
