Cedar Key - Idalia Recovery and Murals

11/5/2023

Now that Idalia has past, we decided to visit Cedar Key to see how restoration efforts progressed and continue capturing Florida murals in one of the last 10 remaining fishing villages in the state. Acess from RT19 requires we turned onto Rt24 (a two-lane rural road) travelled approximately 20 miles west through wetlands and marshes - entering the Cedar Key Great Scrub Reserve with great views on either side of the road ... at times we felt like we were traveling to locations we have explored similar to travels to Ozello, the Florida Keys and Aripeka.

​To our surprise and joy, the perceived damage Cedar Key was to have incurred was limited. In the historic district all the local cafes and breakfast shops were busy with patrons, enjoying friends, good food and a beautiful 70-degree morning. As we explored several buildings for murals, we decided to talk to the hosts at the Historic Island Hotel - which was known for a mural on their walls and they kindly offered a small tour of the interior.
