I love this area of Florida so much that I’ve tried to buy a place every time I come down but things are just never right…either timing, or kids or work or money. Now it’s just money but I still look. I don’t even want to be on the beach…just close enough to smell the fresh salt air and feel it on my face.
First, however, I went to a little-known place called Cedar Key. It used to be a covey of very talented artists about twenty years ago. Now it’s just another snow bird nest. Lots and lots of condos have been built and they certainly cater to the winter flying birds. It’s still a nice place, don’t get me wrong, but it’s just not what I hoped it was. It had changed and I’m grieving over the loss of such a cozy community of varied talent.
Cedar Key
You probably can’t see them but there are HUNDREDS of pelicans perched on the pier just outside this restaurant in Cedar Key.
Montana didn’t know they were birds for the first few seconds during this shot…but…
Birds?
We stayed one night only because we were ready to get some sugar white sand in between our toes! Whooohooo!
Where’s Montana? On the beach!
Quit? Now? But there are more birds to bark at!
Montana running in the Gulf to chase down some birds!
I have more of sunsets but can’t download them right now. They’ll be in the next post! We’re smiling!
Happy Trails!
