I have had the wonderful opportunity to stay in a family friend's beach cottage on stilts SW of Galveston in Jamaica Beach, TX. The weather was cool, humid and windy for the last couple of days so it has been a fine refuge to organize gear, repack things and do a load of laundry. The beach is within walking distance and the tumultuous winter sea has taken a toll on the beach since I've arrived.
Happy March to all my friends in the frozen north! Just a reminder that spring is right around the corner :) I have had the wonderful opportunity to stay in a family friend's beach cottage on stilts SW of Galveston in Jamaica Beach, TX. The weather was cool, humid and windy for the last couple of days so it has been a fine refuge to organize gear, repack things and do a load of laundry. The beach is within walking distance and the tumultuous winter sea has taken a toll on the beach since I've arrived. My friend Matt flew on down to escape the frozen tundra that has become Virginia, taking a few days away from work to escape on the beach. The weather has been cool but we've made the most of it by exploring the coastal wetlands and preserves through the marshes beyond barrier islands. I cooked up some ribs and the following day tried some of Leon's smoked brisket from Galveston. TO-DIE-FOR. With a few more things to knock out on my list for the Ruckus, I'll keep busy this afternoon and have her ready to ride tomorrow (Monday) when I'll begin working my way toward the green swamps and coastal bayous of Louisiana.

Mike SaundersIn May 2014 I quit my job to ride a Honda Ruckus over 69'000 mi and counting. Wild camping most nights and cooking most of my own meals, I keep the costs low and the landscape changing. Archives
