Although I’ve lived in Sarasota I admit I’m always discovering something new when visiting. It’s been a while since I’ve really explored the Historic Burns Square neighborhood and on Sunday, prior to the rally for Rick Santorum, conditions were right for an afternoon amble. The sun was shining bright, temperature was perfect and the retro-chic neighborhood begged for a little discovering.

Enjoy!
