Lizzie Borden took an axe
And gave her mother forty whacks.
And when she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.



Okay so you know your weird when you run around your office yelling "I got the murder room!"

The BF and I are planning a trip back east next fall. We're going to Mystic ( as in pizza) mainly becuase there is a terrific replica whaling village with lots of museums and even a class for Scrimshawing.

We're only staying a few days and traveling through New Bedford and Rhode Island. I was in the area a couple times when I was a little kid. Once for a family reunion on my mothers side and then again for my Grandmothers funeral.

Usually Bf is the man with the plan, he's very good at finding interesting things to do or see that we both like as far as traveling goes, and he likes maps and guidebooks. So I was more than happy to leave the planning to him for this trip. We decided that I would be incharge of arranging the hotels soooooo i got to thinking. I remembered that the Lizzie Borden house was somewheres imn that area, turns out it's right along the way we were planing to go soo I contacted them and miracles or miracles they had openning on the night we would be passing through town! Even better, we got the murder room where Lizzies sister was killed! I wasn't sure if Bf would be ok sleeping in a room like that but he was gung ho and excited about it






Here is the room after the murder
