Finding Ruins in a Time of Ruin


There's a lot of wide open space in far West Texas. Considering the current state of things, we decided to go find some of it. Along the way, we found more abandoned ruins in the middle of nowhere and enjoyed fresh air on a very early spring day. Come along and join us. It's not like you're doing anything else right now.

Bonus Material: Below are a few extra photos from the ride that I didn't use in the montages. I thought I'd include them here since they turned out pretty nice.

I've been thinking of doing some macro work on future rides as there's a lot of interesting stuff happening on a small scale within the flora and fauna. We'll see how the year progresses. Fingers crossed for something resembling normal sooner rather than later.

Oil Company Blocks Access to Public Cemetery | Motorcyclists Denied!


According to the Texas Health and safety code, reasonable access shall be provided for both public and private cemeteries. Land owners and lessees shall not prohibit access. This is what happened to us when we tried to visit a historically designated cemetery in West Texas and discovered that an oil company and other interested parties had blocked the entrance with a shared lock system.
