The Gas – 6/11/2016
I was out unicycling and I got a call from JoJo, “The River Wife”. I was stopped at an intersection and picked up the call to see what she wanted. She mentioned a paddling race coming up in a few days and wondered if I was interested in it. I told I would find out … Continue reading “The Gas – 6/11/2016”
Park With Mark – 6/5/2016
My nephew Mark came over for a visit. While his parents talked to Danelle, Mark and I took a walk to the nearby park. I talked and got him to laugh and talk back. He rode on my shoulders and pulled my hair. We didn’t stay too long at the park but it was worth … Continue reading “Park With Mark – 6/5/2016”

Early Paddle with Hannah – 6/3/2016
By some miracle, I was able to get Hannah to wake up early when she was visiting for an early morning paddle. While the official wake up time was 5 am, we didn’t get out for another thirty minutes as she acclimated to the morning! In a short while, we were at the ramp getting … Continue reading “Early Paddle with Hannah – 6/3/2016”
Carpenter Bees – 6/1/2016
This is an example of the hole the bees make, Its on the under side of the railing next to the white beam. This is what the predator did to get too the bees. I’m guessing it was a woodpecker. The only real winners here appear to be the ants! Hogan Haake
Early Morning Paddle – 5/27/2016
In preparation for the MR340 this year, I’ve been trying to do weekly paddle sessions. It hasn’t been perfect, but I’ve been doing more training than the last few times I’ve done the race. I’ve learned that my family doesn’t miss me early in the mornings. So I set off shortly after 5 am for … Continue reading “Early Morning Paddle – 5/27/2016”
Kansas City Weekend – 5/27/2016
We went to Kansas City to visit my family again. The first site we had was of Henry’s mustang on jack stands in the driveway. This is amusing because Herman’s mustang is also on jack stands in the garage. Seems to be a theme. It is worth noting that Henry’s car was self inflicted as … Continue reading “Kansas City Weekend – 5/27/2016”
End of the Katy Trail – 5/22/2016
I love the idea of the Katy Trail. I’ve biked a few miles of it and its right in our city. So I decided to see a larger portion of it. Corvin wanted to go with me for this adventure. We parked at the trail head at Black Walnut, Missouri. We then biked east to … Continue reading “End of the Katy Trail – 5/22/2016”

Sonora wanted to have a birthday party with her friends. So I took her and three of her friends to the City Museum for her party. So Sonora, Clare, Keann, and Ella are headed into the museum with me. Clare is a bit afraid of heights, so I’ll have to be extra careful with her … Continue reading “Sonora’s Birthday Party – 5/15/2016”
