In order to get prepared for the MR340 this year, I planned two overnight training runs. This was the second and last training run. My plan was to go from Jefferson City [Noreen Access] back to St. Charles [Blanchette Access]. This route is approximately 117 river miles.

I’ll post photos, but they hardly do it justice! The next image is interesting. The parking garage has its entrance under water. … Continue reading “6th Highest Missippi River Crest St. Louis, MO 40.52ft – 6/4/2013”
Some random events from the month. I took my first On-Call call for work. Went outside and drank a beer with Ryan while working on it. Probably not supposed to drink while working… Sonora has a new skill! The upgraded garden is planted Preparing for a summer BBQ! Album Hogan Haake
I’m a huge strawberry jelly/jam fan. The rest of the family likes it as well. So we went to the strawberry patch in town and picked a huge amount of strawberries for making jam. As always, the kids start out on a tear and get tired quickly! Of course, they can re-energize when they see … Continue reading “Strawberry Jam – 5/27/2013”
