As part of the Mayflower Compact and the "Agreement de Baseball Stadium Trip", Nancy agreed to go on this trip if we also stopped at museums and National Parks. Today, on our travel towards Tampa, we stopped in Sarasota to see the Ringling Museum. This is actually a compound with the Ringling Estate (Ca d'Zan), the Circus Museum, an Art Museum (with John Ringling's extensive art collection), and Mable Ringling's gardens.
Given Nancy's penchant for roses, we spent a lot of time in the rose garden. The circus memorabilia was spectacular; the grounds were beautiful; and we enjoyed the 22 large galleries of art (the Grandma Moses exhibit was especially good). It was a very worthwhile stopover.
Here's a link to some pictures:
