Shores Couple Home From Sunny Clime Having just returned from that beautiful land of palm trees, golden beaches and warm breezes; Matt and Julia Ziemet and Julia's mother, Mrs. Julia Kallas, all are having wonderful memories of their trip to Florida. -• The sunshine state offered them a month of exciting tours and wonderful sights. They stayed in South Venice, Which is on the west coast, at the home of their friends, the Maloney family. From this point, they made many side trips including a beautiful drive to Tampa to view the Busch Bavarian Gardens, a trip to Fort Lauderdale where they stayed for three days visiting friends. Then down to Miamo for a day and the following day clear down to Key West. Here they stayed at a lovely motel situated at the Southern most tip of the U.S. Julia said it was simply breathtaking with the ocean on all sides. They took an exciting ride in a glass bottom boat, drove down the Tamiami Trail, saw the Everglades, visited Naples, and then back to South Venice once more. A high point of their trip was their visit with the Jack Ristings in their new home, which, they report, is a 'dream home." An interesting stop off the TaWiiami Trail was at the world's largest basket weaving center. Another highlight was the Ringling Brothers Circus grounds where they were filming a new movie "The Greatest Show On Earth." They saw two of the stars while there: Jack Palance and Tuesday Weld. Julia couldn't resist the temptation of putting her feet into the Gulf of Mexico even though it was only 56 outside. On the way home a stop was made at the beautiful Cypresr, Gardens. What wouldn't the rest of us have given to take such a welcome vacation at this time of the year. S.S.A.C.
