Closerie des Lilas, where Hemingway used to come and write in the 1920s. Also a favourite haunt of Cézanne, Zola, Baudelaire, Verlaine, Lenin and Apollinaire. Also Wilde, Man Ray, F Scott Fitzgerald, Breton, Gide, Pound, Picasso, Beckett, Modigliani and Sartre.
Our first stop was in Key West, Florida and we dropped by the Ernest Hemingway House for a tour, where I took a zillion pictures. There were so many delightful little details though (and a lot of cute kitties!) so it was impossible to stop snapping.

The idyllic setting for Ernest Hemingway's grave in Ketchum, ID. One of his wives is buried beside him, and his son is just over to the right.
Thought I'd give Hemingway another try, checked out one of his short stories collection. So far he's made me laugh. Check mark on lighting? Idk why every time I want to take a macro of earrings I like, the first place I want to put them on is a book...
I snagged this picture of Hemingway's house at the following site. There is also a good article about the Hemingway House and the history:

"The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists."

"Descendants of Ernest Hemingway's cats still roam the lovely grounds of his Key West home. Many of the cats have six toes on a foot, notice the vocalist on the right."

This is not a great shot though I found the subject very interesting. Each day Hemingway stood on the bathroom scales and made a note of his weight on the wall above the tiles. It makes a fascinating account of the man's focus on his health and condition which is interesting given his known love of the liquor!
For more than two decades, famed author Ernest Hemingway occupied Finca Vigia, a hilltop villa 20 kilometers east of Havana. Built in 1886 by the Catalan architect Miguel Pascual y Baguer, the house was acquired in 1939 by Hemingway, who lived there until 1960.

One of the forty-six cats at the Hemingway House. I'm a sucker for orange kitties and this guy was my favorite, all passed out and sleepy on Hemingway's bed. He reminds me of my favorite orange cat, Otis.

Contrast between the bark and ironwork.
The house was built by Asa Tift, a marine architect (and Confederate mariner), in 1851. In 1931 Hemingway purchased it and lived here with his second wife, Pauline, and their two sons until 1939.
Here, Hemingway completed the final draft of "A Farewell to Arms," as well as "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber".
