Description

The Hemingway House is one of my favorite places in Key West. I love the lush tropical landscsaping and the 2-story wrap around porch. It is a writer's haven full of inspiration. Ernest Hemingway's house had one of the only freshwater pools on the island. Ernest's office was in a separate building behind the house on the second floor. He had a 6-toed cat, and today there are many cats roaming around the home. In fact you can see one of the cats on the left side of this image. This image is also available in black and white. This photo was taken in Key West on our way to Europe.

You can read about our adventure in Europe in my husband's book, "Vagabonds in France", by Michael A. Barry. Come with us as we lose our home, put everything in storage, and navigate through Europe for a few months with no return date or home to come back to. Sail across the Atlantic, dodge pickpockets, climb mountains, descend into the Paris Metro, endure nasty weather and illness, witness the flood of the century, and meet some wonderful and not-so-wonderful people. Chuckle with us as we live among the French and try to learn their ways and language. Then make it back home to an empty house we'd never seen before. The book with its 75 illustrations is available in both paperback and Kindle on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NCUNSEK .
