So, Did You Know This About the Cape Cod? Falmouth-born poet and author Katharine Lee Bates (1859-1929) penned our nation's unofficial national anthem, "America the Beautiful." - In 1970, the national Christmas Tree Shops retail chain was founded at a location on Route 6A in Yarmouth Port. - In front of the Wellfleet Beachcomber is one of those hidden spots that locals love to rave about, a beautiful beach that is not crowded. - The basement of the main house on the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port contains a motion-picture theater and a hall covered with dolls from all around the world. It also contains a wine cellar designed after a ship's hull and a sipping room--one of the Kennedy family's favorite hideouts. - 3365 Main St., Hyannis is the location of the oldest wooden jail in the United States, dating back to the late 1600s. Some say a few former inmates still haunt the building today. - The Coast Guard Heritage Museum that sits at the corner of Main Street and Millway in Barnstable Village is one of only two free standing museums celebrating the Coast Guard history in the country.
