CEDAR KEY FLORIDA Laid back Island Life is GREAT

Cedar Key was has been our bucket list for over two years now. Our good friends Clark and Elaine from "Our Newell Adventure" recommended this quaint little Island town back in 2017 when we worked with them at Yellowstone (Thanks Clark!). We arrived here March1st and have just loved the place, no fast food, no stop lights, just laid back people in no hurry at all! One of the locals here commented this is what Key West looked like in the 1950's and you can get hooked here very easy. I renewed my Eagles membership also and now I can hang with the locals!

  2. So, so happy you are enjoying Cedar Key for the same reasons we do! Have you been to Tony's Seafood and had their Clam Chowder yet? We loved the Island Hotel's restaurant. Enjoy your remaining time there, and keep those sunset pictures coming!!

  3. Hi Clark, yes we did do the clam chowder at Tony's, it was AMAZING. We purchased a couple of cans to go not as good as fresh. Next post is the famous TIKI BAR. We have 6 wonderful weeks of island life left.Have a great time with your family
