Fun and Games with Nathaniel and the Hawthorne Hotel

Because we wanted to have some fun, we decided to start a contest called "Where's Nathaniel?"  We have a replica of Nathaniel Hawthorne, and we are taking him on a tour of Salem.  Every place we visit we will take his photo, but like many tourists our picture-taking skills will sometimes leave you wondering exactly where he was-- however, if you look closely, there will always be some kind of clue.

Our contest runs through September at least, and we will be posting the new photos on FaceBook, so if you are not already a "fan" of our Hawthorne Hotel FaceBook page, now would be a really good time to join in the fun.  Or, if you prefer Twitter, all of the FaceBook posts will automatically appear on Twitter, so if you follow us on that social medium, you will see the clues as well.

We will be having a new photo and awarding prizes every few days, and while you can only win once, there will be a drawing for one grand-prize winner  at the end (drawn at random from all entries for the entire contest).  Everyone who enters will be eligible for the grand prize.

Just to get you started, here is the first photo.  Do you know where Nathaniel visited on this particular day?

Last but not least, if you see us "touring" Salem and taking photos, please stop by and chat with us and you may receive a nice surprise.

I hope to see you here, or someplace in Salem!
