Wordless Wednesday: Hammond Castle
Recently I discovered Wordless Wednesdays through the blog, 5 Minutes for Mom. Basically, on Wednesdays all around the Internet, bloggers post their favorite photos, ideally without any words to accompany them, but often with just 1-2 sentences of context. I’m not a photo-blogger. I’m more of a word girl, so I thought Wordless Wednesday would be fun.

Over Spring Break, The Five-Year-Old and I visited Hammond Castle, a medieval-style castle built by John Hays Hammond in the 1920s. I’ll tell you more about our visit next week (on some day that allows words).

I was there many many years ago!

Pretty neat, isn’t it? I think my favorite object was the piano with the harp fused to the top of it in the library.

Hm, it looks a little cold there! Having grown up in MA, I’ve never visited – it seems very interesting!

Thanks for stopping by. I think it’s definitely worth a visit, especially if you happen to be in the Gloucester area anyway. I first learned about it in one of those “8 underappreciated museums in MA” articles that pop up on FB now and then. The Five-Year-Old is always up for an unusual adventure, so off we went. I’ll post more pictures from our trip next week.
