Rosemary: Streetside

After stopping for an afternoon frozen coffee, I started exploring the other side of town.  I had pretty much seen all the houses on the beach side on previous trips, so everything I saw from here on out was brand new.




There seemed to be more of the mission style design elements on this side, and it definitely had a more ethereal, marshland quality than the brighter, more open beach side.





After dodging through several side streets and alleys, I came upon this building that looked like it came straight out of the sixties!  It was the town stage, complete with a large, flat, field space spanning outwards.



And a Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, "No blades, no bows, leave your weapons here," sign.


Again, the properly kept but still wild-looking trees and flowers caught my eye.  These little stalks with their elvish curling leaves were quite lovely.


Sprinkled in among the neighborhoods were these little nature alcoves, providing a place to sit and just experience the surroundings.  Perhaps you've been walking for a while in the hot Florida humidity, or maybe you just want to stop and admire the vines crawling up the trellis'.  

I only got through about half of the street side.  The other half will just have to wait until next summer!
