Well it turned out that the weather was not permitting.
So that turned into a hanging out day.
But the next day...
...the weather was permitting!
So after a quick breakfast at a nearby coffee shop, The Fuzz strapped on the saddlebags and headed up the coast to Topsail Island.
He crossed the drawbridge into Surf City and turned south toward Topsail Beach.
The Family had spent several summer Beach Trips here before having to move to larger quarters on the other end of the island.
But The Fuzz wanted to see the place again.
First he rode out to where the road ended.
There he found these work boats tied up. Not sure what they were up to- maybe dredging the channel?
Next he parked the bike and went out to the beach.
It was pretty deserted compared to the summertime.
It was hard to resist, so The Fuzz did pull off the boots and get his feet wet. The water was a bit cold.
There were a lot of Pelicans out. The Fuzz always enjoys watching them fly over in a line like they do.
Then it was time for a beer at the Quarter Moon in Topsail Beach.
He had some fish & chips in Surf City, and continued north to the other end of the island.
Then it was back to Wilmington.
He got there right after one of those "Gully Washer" storms.
That was good timing!
And today...
...more rain.
