Ernest Hemingway House – Key West

A few years ago I spent Christmas in Key West (which I highly recommend by the way) and toured Ernest Hemingway’s house museum. He moved there in 1931 and his wife collected the furnishings and chandeliers that are still present today.

You’ll see a few of the polydactyl cats (they have extra toes) in the photos from the many that reside there. They are descendants of Hemingway own personal cats.

Oxford, Maryland Walking Tour

Oxford, Maryland is a beautiful historic town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. It is one of the oldest towns in America, marking it’s founding in 1683. It is a quiet, water-lover’s paradise still populated with working watermen intermingled with Washington D.C. weekenders and retirees. This photo collection is part of a larger one, taken for other purposes, so I extracted some of the “old house” scenery to share here.

I know where I would be if this house was mine. See the Stonebridge photo tour for more.
