On our second day in Florida, we visited the Ringling Estate in Sarasota, and my greatest regret is that I didn't photograph the outsides of the buildings, as the photos I took don't prove the stateliness of the place. Cade and Sam visited the Museum of Art; the rest of us opted to tour the Circus Museum and (some of the) Bayfront Gardens only.

| Banyan trees. I was reading, today, that oral history indicates that Thomas Edison gifted thirteen banyans to John Ringling in the 1920's. |

The Ringling Estate is way more sophisticated than I'd expected. I'm glad we visited and would like to return when my little ones are older.
I love two photos here, the burial site (so moving) and CHARLEIGH!!!!
