Exploring the E Texas Gulf Coast



 On the first day of my blog I am camping in the small Texas town of High Island. I have been here for approx 2 weeks enjoying the moderate weather and exploring the Crystal Beach area. So far I have had only a little success in finding the paleo fossils that this area is known for.

My fishing success has been much better and I am catching a couple of large redfish. 

My plans are to remain here until the first week in March and then start moving north in the hopes of getting my kayak in the water and trying my luck amd finding more paleo bones.

Ancient Horse!

 Found my first fossilized or heavily mineralized horse teeth during a Long Beach walk today.

Ancient Human Remains.

 We find ancient human rains several times during a season of hunting. The sheriff is called and they stop by to pick them up. Them the remains are turned over to an authority who repatriate them to a local tribe. 

This post is a bit of a downer

 I have been walking Mcfaddin Beach on the Texas Gufl Shore. The condition of this beach is very disappointing. The amount of garbage that I see on this beach is disgusting. Most appears to have been left by beach goers. I would not visit this beach to enjoy the sun or the sand. I have also seen remnants of dozens of Mylar balloons, thousand of yard of nylon rope amd fishing line, oil filters, discarded tents, etc. There is plastic in almost every square foot of soil.
