Watercolor your lakes in R
All lakes are beautiful. Or at least when they’re coded in watercolor!
For this you will need to install and load ggmap. I am a huge Hadley Wickham fan (obvs), but am not usually a proponent of plotting packages. I love base. However, you can’t beat this one.

You will need two customize two things: 1) Lat/long <- The center of your map in decimal degrees 2) Zoom <- Must be an integer. This is frustrating with small scale maps. Like the Great Lakesinstall.packages('ggmap') library(ggmap)
To plot figure without axes, set extent to ‘device. Now output your figure and put it on your fridge! Or your phone wallpaper.qmap(c(-94.542155,49.3938), zoom=9, source = "stamen", maptype = "watercolor")
png('mylake.png',width=4,height=4,units='in',res=300) mylake=get_map(c(-94.542,49.393), zoom=9, source = "stamen", maptype = "watercolor") ggmap(mylake,extent = "device") dev.off()
