August 2021
August has come and gone. Some of our random stuff. Corvin Sonora Kids being silly! I met another unicyclist on Grant’s Trail! I walked from my house downtown to the arch. Was a 14 some mile day 🙂 We met Laura downtown for dinner. And sorry to disappoint, but no cat photos!
Disc Golf at Piasa Harbor – 8/20/2021
A couple weeks ago on a random motorcycle ride, I was riding a new area just taking in all the sites when I came across a disc golf course I didn’t realize was there. Fast forward to today and I decided it would be fun to play a round there. Danelle and her co-worker Hannah … Continue reading “Disc Golf at Piasa Harbor – 8/20/2021”
Creve Coeur Lake 5K – 8/17/2021
I try to paddle each week in the Creve Coeur Lake 5K. Its a friendly group of paddlers that perform a self-timed 5K race around the lake every Tuesday at 6:30pm generally May through October. This week, Sonora wanted to come paddle with me. She paddled the previous week, but wanted to be in her … Continue reading “Creve Coeur Lake 5K – 8/17/2021”
153rd Sunset Race 8/12/2021
This month we were super excited to go paddling. Only there was a strong storm forecast to come in right as we start. Just the same, I packed up the boats. Down at the river, I unloaded the boats just in case the storm passed. The canoe in the back is about 120 lbs, so … Continue reading “153rd Sunset Race 8/12/2021”
Danelle’s Graduation – 8/7/2021
COVID sure makes it hard to celebrate. Last May, Danelle earned her Ph.D in Biology, but we were in the midst of a pandemic. The kids and I sat in the arena waiting for the ceremony to begin. It was rather empty! All masked up and by ourselves. When the ceremony started, we were pleasantly … Continue reading “Danelle’s Graduation – 8/7/2021”

Father’s Day – 6/20/2021
When I think of Father’s Day, I like to think of a relaxing day doing whatever nothing I want and the kids leave me alone. Yeah, not very fatherly of me… And the kids wanted to treat me (meaning they said where I go and I pay). Therefore, we started off at a bowling alley. … Continue reading “Father’s Day – 6/20/2021”
Water Double Date – 6/13/2021
We called up our good friends Kelly and Jeff and asked if they wanted to do a paddling double date on the Missouri river. I promised to bring all the supplies and do most of the work if they provided the company. I was quite surprised when they agreed. Of course I needed to make … Continue reading “Water Double Date – 6/13/2021”
