10 am: We will meet at The Hampton History Museum for a private
tour of the museum conducted by Museum Curator Michael Cobb.
This will be followed by a walking tour of Little England aka "Pasture
Point." This is a lovely neighborhood full of 1890’s houses. If we are
lucky we might get a peek inside one of them.
After our tour we will adjourn to the charming Phoebus Coffeehouse on
Mellen Street for lunch with the Director. Those who wish to do so may
continue the fun by antiquing on Mellen Street.
Tour Price: $9: this does not include lunch.
Phoebus Coffeehouse lunch prices range from $5-$10.
A very reasonable expense!
