first time out didnt go as bad as I thought

So recently picked up surfing and got my first board which is a 8ft foamie. Today went out to Bermuda beach in Galveston and was totally stocked for it. 4-5 ft waves because of a NE wind coming through and I managed to kind of catch my first few waves and was very excited, even if it was for a few seconds. Just kinda sharing here because not to many of the fellow Texan surfers here arent to friendly and even the shops were kind of eh when I was asking about newb spots that were out of the way of everything. (Actually had to look up where to surf sadly. Not one person would tell me anything) But, I feel pretty good about myself and feel like I really wanna make this A weekly thing.
anyways just sharing with you guys so thanks for listening
