Spring in Salem

One of our must stops is REDS for Sunday breakfast. There is always a line but well worth the wait. We were happy to have Kevin with us for most of the weekend. We had just a few rules for the weekend, be happy, well fed and good drink.

REDS is located in one of the many old and historic building in Salem. So many visitors focus on Witches (not that I can blame them) but there is so much great history in this town.


The Old Salem Prison has sat empty for so long, it now has a new owner and is undergoing a major restoration. When we looked at the property is was down to $600K. Very tempting but there were a lot of stipulations. The complex will be a combination of apartments, museum and restaurant with a small park.



This is the inside of one of three units we would consider if they were to sell them. Tall ceilings, a great room with attached kitchen, two full baths and two bedrooms. It would be a major life style change for us but what a great location.
