Cape May, NJ

For many of us, visits to Cape May are limited to the beach side promenade or one of the many popular restaurants.

Now that my mother lives in Cape May full time, I am better able to appreciate the character of this charming city.

If you enjoy looking at houses (and who doesn’t?), walk the side streets around town.  There are gingerbread cottages, Victorian mansions, and grand old beach homes.  The upkeep must be overwhelming- it takes a special person to respect the history of a home and live with imperfection!
