In spite of the intense heat, JoAnna and I dutifully followed the painted red lines on the sidewalks and crosswalks that guide visitors around the downtown historic district of Salem, Massachusetts. We also toured the House of the Seven Gables. Our guide provided an informative overview of the history of the house and its inhabitants. And we got to climb the secret staircase.
Now I wish I had checked out an audio copy of Nathaniel Hawthorne's book of the same name for the drive back to Wisconsin this weekend.
