A Beautiful Day at Captain Penniman's House

Fort Hill - Eastham, Massachusetts - Cape Cod

Captain Edward Penniman was a famous whaler back in the 1800's. In his day, it was possible to catch whales directly from the nearby shore. Penniman was a prolific whaler and often went for long journeys at sea. He took his wife and children along with him. Here is a photo of Captain Penniman's house that was built back in 1868. It's located on Fort Hill in Eastham, Massachusetts and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. As you can see in the photo, the house is a bright and colorful structure with very fancy details. It is protected by the Cape Cod National Seashore.

The house is really beautiful and it's pretty interesting that he could catch the whales even from the shore. I'm sure he wasn't bored while he was living there, hehe

I can only imagine what life was like back in his day!
