Miata 2023 PostCARd Challenge (Post #3)

 

It was a scorcher of a weekend as we hit the road with a few friends from the Houston Miata Club to grab the last two stops on the 2023 Texas Miata Challenge postCARd edition.  A big thanks to the DFW Lone Star Club for putting this together each year!

The map below isn't exact - it was great to have JP taking the lead and planning the route - we got to enjoy plenty of Texas back roads AND a ferry ride along the way!

We really enjoyed this year's challenge and look forward to what Lone Star puts together for next year!

xoxo, SJ

Miata 2023 PostCARd Challenge (Post #2)


It was perfect weather for a three day weekend trip up to north Texas over Memorial Day Weekend to grab three more postCARds for the 10th Anniversary 2023 Texas Miata Challenge.  The murals in Fate may have been my favorite so far on these adventures, though there's not much to do in the small town you can really tell they appreciate the artistry of murals around town. 

And just in case you think you've seen it all, I submit for your viewing pleasure, a parrot out for a Sunday drive?


Two more postcards to go, and it looks like we'll have a mini fun-run with a few other members of the Miata Club for that trip!

XOXO, SJB

2023 Miata PostCARd Challenge (Post #1)

 

The 10th Anniversary 2023 Texas Miata Challenge are Post Card Murals Across Texas! RDB and I took a week to drive 1500 miles from Houston to Carlsbad, NM and back around the northern way to grab five of those entries early in the year.  It was a great trip (longer post here) and the first of our submissions for the challenge can be found below.

We'll take a few weekend trips to grab the rest of the postCARds before the challenge is over in October.

XOXO, SJB
