Not really dive-related, but an interesting factoid about Folly Cove....

I was reading an article in the Globe today -- it had to do with Virginia Lee Burton, author of multiple "classic" children's books including 2 of my childhood favorites -- Katy and the Big Snow and Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel.

Apparently she lived in a house on Folly Cove from 1932 until her death in 1968.
