Humanity

A ghostly moon-lit image is all that remains of an abandoned building-now serving as a pelican roost-put out of commission during from a hurricane. The town of Cedar Key has been ravaged by storms in the past. In 1896 a 25- foot-high storm surge completely destroyed the original town of Cedar Key on Atsena Otie Key. Residents re-located across the channel to the larger Way Key, where the town is currently-but that doesn't stop the storms from coming.
