John and Dolores de Boer's Midwinters trip - 2
...
Co-Principal Race Officials, John Schneider and Martin Zonnenberg on the dock with Dolores.  Bob Brown was the overall Regatta Chair.
...
A side trip to Cedar Key suggested by Bob Brown was an excellent idea. This was our campsite in the only RV park on the island. 
They say this cluster of islands on the Gulf is the way the Keys used to be many years ago, prior of fast food places, etc.
...
We biked a lot, this time in Cedar Key, going for lunch in one of the very quaint places in Cedar Key. 
There are no fast food restaurants on the island and plenty of fresh fish.
