edward's house

After our "Go Coast Guard!" weekend, we decided to take a day trip up to Massachussetts to town of Yarmouthport on the Cape. We have been wanting to take a visit to the Edward Gorey House for quite some time, and the days seemed suitably rainy and dreary to set the stage for a trip.

We are fortunate that the Pup just sort of tags along with us right now. There will come a point that he won't think trips like this are fun...till then...

It was fun. Edward Gorey was a character. He was an ecclectic collector of pretty much everything. When he died, 25,000 volumes of books were found in his home. That's pretty crazy.

The Pup had fun messing about with "The Doubtful Guest" outside when the rain stopped.

It's a fun little house museum that sheds a lot of light on the life of Edward Gorey. The exhibits/displays were very well done and they were fun and interesting.

As always, more pictures from our excursion can be found in flickr.
