Ormond By The Sea to Cedar Key

Sunrise, Atlantic Ocean, 6:33 AM

 On the beach, almost, at 6:25 AM

Ate breakfast, discussed when I would be back, at a reduced rate, with the owner, and headed west on Highway 40 to Cedar Key.

 

With a stop at Wildcat Lake in the Ocala National Forest. In the kayak at 10:04.

 

 

 

 

 

 Landed at 11:30

Stopped at Robinson's Seafood on the outskirts of Cedar Key and bought some.  When I arrived at Park Place, their were people in front of me.  A group that had been at Robinson's.  Stephanie, of the motel, reached over them and handed me the room key. Now, that's service.
