Got to drop in and say hello to Edgar Allan Poe House in Philly.

I was able to get to the Edgar Allan Poe NHS house on North 7th Street in Philly yesterday-  I had stopped by once before, but it was closed, only open on Wed/Sun. 

As a matter of fact, the house had been closed for the last 8 months, due to exterior renovations/restoration, and was just reopened this weekend. 




There were 3 stamps there, and I'm 100% done for here.  I got a pin for this location also- Didn't have a hiking medallion. 

This was a bit of a disappointment as a visit-  Did the house tour and watched the video, but the house was essentially void of any displays-  No furniture, very few artifacts, maybe it was too close to the reopening.
