My grandparents live on the island. There is not restaurant on the island the airport is on, but if you take a taxi into town (5 min ride and they monitor unicom) (town is top right of the picture) there are lots of little shops and great places to eat. It is a small fishing town and mostly untouched. I always love going to Cedar Key.

For those that like little airplane flying and live in the southeast check out SCBC. South Carolina Breakfeast Club. These folks meet every two weeks at some airfield in South Carolina. Hosted by a local EAA chapter some fields are turf and some are more normal airports. Arrive between 7-9 am eat breakfeast, meet new friends, look at airplanes and usually leave by 11 am.
Lots of fun to use a little airplane. They have been meeting since 1938 ececpt for 2 years during WWII. Google them at SCBC to find there schedule throughout the entire year.................

Not that I had an airplane to share in the fun, but if they had ever come by Frogmore International, maybe I would have crashed the party USMCFLYR

This is kind of weird, but my aunt and uncle have a condo there. My uncle has been wanting to have me fly himself and my father down for a week this summer. Looks like it could be a little tricky getting in to. I've never landed on a runway that close to the water.

I have been to Cedar Key when i was training down at FSI. One I liked flying into the last year and a half while instructing in GA was KMLJ Baldwin Co on the lakes southeast of ATL. I wish I had some pics.
