October days at the Addy Sea

For years I wondered about the name of this Bethany Beach bed and breakfast.

For a variety of circumstances it dawned on me when we were there last week that the name could be a pun on the Odyssey, but I don't know if that's correct. Whatever the origin of the name, we always enjoy our visits.
