A New Business Opened in Downtown Safety Harbor

Check out Patch's feature on the eclectic shop, and be sure to stop in and get to know the cool people behind Safety Harbor's newest business.
Buccaneer Bag Brouhaha

Zimmerman Sighting

Keeping up with George Zimmerman’s coming and goings seems to become a pastime for some. In the weeks since a Florida court found him not guilty in the 2012 death of Trayvon Martin, Zimmerman’s whereabouts has made headlines. Most recently, he was spotted outside of Dallas when a police officer pulled him over for speeding. That sighting, like one before it in Orlando, made headlines.
What do you think about all the hoopla surrounding Zimmerman? Is it time to leave him alone?
A Little Rain May Fall
With a 40 percent chance of afternoon storms, it’s a safe bet that bringing an umbrella along today is a good idea. The National Weather Service says storms are more likely in the afternoon and evening hours. Some of them might be strong with heavy winds, so do be careful out there!
