Grand Lake Stream, Maine 1970s Carved Wooden Plaque of Unhappy Hiker Nathaniel hawthorne 7/16" deepWhat I love most about this funny old carved souvenir plaque are the two tiny figures at lower left waving to the hiker protagonist from a distance; I'm not sure whether they completed the hike hours ago and are waiting on the slow father, or whether they are random bystanders just cheering him on! In any case, I think it's pretty good, and a fun gift for a reluctant outdoors person. Fyi, Grand Lake Stream is in the northeastern most part of Maine,
