The local sun trolley is fun, I have an app, it shows where the trolley is on the map, you put out your hand and it stops and picks you up…. a fabulous service.
I visited the Bonnet House. The home of artists Frederic Clay Bartlett and Evelyn Fortune Lilly, they continued to use the home as a winter residence until his death in 1953 and hers in 1997. She deeded the property in 1983 to the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation, which maintains the property as a historic house museum called the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens.
I had heard the house was full of eclectic art pieces and the setting and history were part of a wonderful story of creative souls. I was not disappointed.
There was a color pallet the made you just want to smile. Blue, yellow, the green of foliage
and madder red.
In a way it reminded me of the house of Frida Kahlo, but unlike her house there is a calmness about the Bonnet House that makes you just want to sit a while.
