The first time I went to this place — 1 year ago
I lived here during the middle 1970’s. I loved it. I couldn’t get over all the older folks. lol! What am I saying I’m a older folk now! Hwy 41 was a killer then. But I just loved Sarasota especially st arman’s key and lido beach. I spent many a happy time there. Is Big Daddy’s still there? lol! I went to Ringling and it was so laid back. Now its just a commercial enterprize. The hideway bar is gone and probably some other hangouts. I was from the deep south and Sarasota was a culture shock to me back then, lol! The Ringling museum, home and the asolo theatre. I use to sneek into the new college pool when it was locked up at night. I want to go back and see the changes. Is the oberlins diner on 301 still open? Best fish in town!
