Bewitched by Salem.

8-12-14 SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS: We came down from VT on our way to Maine to see the J. M. W. Turner exhibit at the Peabody-Essex Museum. They have some of his famous oils here and a lot of small watercolors and drawings. The museum is in the old town, which has the waterfront and old houses and municipal buildings, but is overrun with witch, zombie, occult stuff and even a school for psychics. The whole area is just a tad on the seedy side. We look forward to a seafood dinner and hope to avoid any haunting.

The J. M. W. Turner exhibit has some of his iconic oils, but doesn't allow photos.

Salem reminders of the maritime history...

Atop the Customs House...

Much of the historic city and waterfront is into witches, zombies and psychics.
