GrafoMap Custom Map Prints Make a Great Gift for Dads and Grads-Giveaway

He was raised on an acreage in the Penetanguishine/Midland area and at first, I wasn’t sure which one to choose for the map. Eventually, I realized that I could use his exact address to create a map that centred right on the house where he was raised. The resulting map print, with glimpses of Georgian Bay around it, was graphically stunning!
