It's not just the fishermen who wake at 6 am. Chris Christiansen (center), owner of Cook's Cafe, prepares to open the doors to weekend tourists coming for the annual art festival. Although they only stay open for breakfast, Chris and his wife Peggy (left), are not short of hospitality. During the 'storm of the century" in 1993 much of Cedar Key was flooded. The Christiansen's gave out free sandwiches and soup, and allowed stranded residents to sleep in the restaurant because it was one of the few places in town above water.
