Not a bad idea, but we would have to resolve any and all copyright
issues before doing that. Perhaps a better idea would be making a
custom Google Maps page for TLUG, where we could add markers,
directions, photos, etc. to help other TLUGgers find interesting stuff
in the area.

Here is an example of what I mean:

http://www.jmglov.net/japan/yokohama/map.html

The best part of it is, it is all client-side JavaScript, so we don't
suck tons of bandwidth or CPU using it. :)
