DayTripper blogger Rick S. reports in a photo essay on on our Gather blog: "Our friend Josh Sullivan is in town this week. Josh is a cartoonist and musician who has embarked on a year-long cross-country road trip, a project he calls "52 Friends." Josh stays with a different friend in a different city every week for a year. We've been having a lot of fun hosting him and showing him around Cape Cod.
"So, one local attraction that Josh wanted to see was the Edward Gorey House. This was the Cape Cod home of author/illustrator Edward Gorey. Located in Yarmouthport MA on Cape Cod, the house was sometimes known as the Elephant House, because of some elephant-related collectibles inside and also because its original weathered shingles resembled the skin of an elephant. The home houses an impressive display of Gorey's work and his personal collections, including props from the sets that Gorey designed for the TV series, Mystery.
"Outside is a [great garden] and sculpture of Gorey's famous sculpture, Doubtful Guest. Josh is a huge fan of Gorey's artwork, so this [day trip] was a great experience for him."
