RE: Another Camping Trip
Laurie, it's more than worth it!!!
From the Gamble Plantation it's not far away to the Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, where you can marvel at "Gala Contemplating the Mediterranean Sea which at Twenty Meters becomes a Portrait of Abraham". It wasn't allowed to take pictures there, so this is downloaded: I once posted a trivia question on this painting: http://rogerjnorton.com/LincolnDiscussio...light=dali The Dalí Museum hosts the worldwide second largest Dalí collection, including paintings dating from his impressionistic beginnings. (The only bigger exhibition is the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, Spain, his birthplace.) Since there are also some Beatles fans out there, please allow me one last (off course) recommendation: the Classic Car Museum in Sarasota. There you will see these two Mercedes cars, which once were owned by John Lennon: Unfortunately, Paul McCartney's Mini Cooper and John Lennon's psychedelic Rolls Royce were sold some time ago. But a visit is also worth it as you can see cars like this: Finally, I had never before seen this strange car: A Ford Ghia Urban, later called the Ghia Manx. It was designed in the aftermath of the oil embargo crisis of 1973 as a solution to urban congestion and higher gas prices. |
