Stained Glass Google Maps updated

I've begun to add a few more sites to the St. Louis Stained Glass Google Map.

I hope to add 1 or 2 locations a month, with full detailed info.

Again, this is considered to be 'in process', and suggestions or corrections welcome.

I've also started a Bottle House Google Map, based on the bottle houses/walls I've covered in this blog.

The Bottle House Map is rougher, with many having only a general sense of the location and no info on logistics, seeing that I haven't personally been to any of these sites. In that vain, it's also a little depressing to view this in the form of a map, in that it shows just how spread out and inaccessible many of the bottle house locations are. I do intend to eventually add links and selected pictures to the Bottle House Google map.

I've got other ideas for SG related Google maps, like doing a given map for the work of one artist (like to do a John LaFarge sites map), or perhaps one style in one city, making for a single manageable tour. As time allows...
