Cedar Key Dinner Trip

Cedar Key, FL - Trip Report

Last Saturday my wife and I have made the ~1 hour trip from Gainesville to Cedar Key for some gulf-side dinning. We walked around this harbor-town for a while and noticed that it has likely seen better days. There are a number of interesting shops operating, with local art and handmade products.


The 'FishBonz' sign earned our award for interesting verbage.


We enjoyed our dinner at the SeaBreaze Restraunt (although, unlike last time, there were no Dolphines playing in the harbor).

How to rescue your cat from the Lobster Trap

A while back my cat (Keakers) climbed into a coffee table that is built to resemble (apparently in function as well) a lobster trap. I'm not sure how long she was detained for (she was there when I came home from work), however she didn't seem to be particularly interested in solving the visual puzzle that kept her from just walking back out.

We had an impromptu education session where I would put my hand in the trap to show her that she could just walk out the center (lobster traps are cone-shaped nets that have a small opening in the middle to allow a lobster, or house cat as the case may be, to enter but makes is visually difficult to find the exit, as the center is further back in the trap than the rest of the net.

No avail, so I pried one of the ‘bars’ out and Keakers was free to find a good-o-fashion (safe) cardboard box to sit in.




How to 'properly' prepare Easter eggs

obviously this is out of season.. so what.. its my log.. your likely not even reading this.





The First step is to create (drill!) two small holes on either end of the eggs.









Secondly, and far more exerting, you must carefully blow out the egg-material.







Lastly, smile and look on the bright side of life, at least it wasnt someone you knew.
