The Fire Bell

374 Main St, West Dennis, MA 02670, USA

I didn’t believe this sign. A whole store devoted to fire fighting? But indeed, it’s true: models, toys, books, videos, all about fire fighting and police work. The guy who runs it is a retired Cape Cod firefighter and he’ll chat you up. There’s also a cat, of course. We scored a local toy police car and a Fireman Small book (awesome) for our emergency-vehicle-obsessed son. I’m not sure there’s anywhere else like this in the world. How many stores can you say that about?
