Lots of Christmas too though it looks a little awkward in this unusual heat. Boat Parades, Santa Parades, tree lighting's, all in the Christmas spirit.

Sarasota Jazz Project
At the Farmers Market today the Sarasota Jazz Project played. They are so good and I just love the Big Band sound. Several are local school music teachers and others are retired professionals.

Thanksgiving 2012
Thanksgiving was easy this year. We had turkey breast, stuffing, gravy, British Potatoes by Alex and Cheezy Zucchini by Lizz. Then watched the movie "The Iron Lady" the story of Margret Thatcher and Alex gave us insider knowledge.

Chalk Festival 2012
Just amazing is all I have to say about the Chalk Festival held every year in the Burns Court area of Sarasota. It has grown yearly and now brings internationally known chalk artists. This years theme is "Circus" aptly named as Sarasota is the home of the Ringling Brothers Museum and the famous Nik Wallenda of walking across Niagara Falls fame this past summer.
