Its been cold outside and we just wanted to get out of the house for a bit. Danelle, Sonora, and I went down to the Meramec river in valley park to hike on the path along the river. Sonora was in a silly mood and didn’t want to walk directly with us. We ended up … Continue reading “Hike With Sonora – 3/31/2019”
Corvin had a track meet at Kirkwood High School. His grandparents live a few blocks from the school. We parked the car at their house and walked back to the house. For this meet he was in the first (4x800m), middle (1600m), and last (3200m) events. That meant that we would be there for the … Continue reading “Kirkwood Track Meet – 3/27/2019”
Hannah came in for a few days during her spring break to hang out with us. Here are some highlights of her visit. Danelle picked her up from the Amtrak bus (as the tracks were flooded out). From there, they went straight downtown to get photos. With pictures and food out of the way, there … Continue reading “Hannah Weekend – 3/22/2019”
We took a family weekend to Memphis, TN. We started early Saturday morning and took our new ’07 Camry Hybrid. The kids love this car because of the sun roof and maybe the leather seats. We had a few ideas of what we wanted to see. During the drive, Danelle used the Internet on her … Continue reading “Memphis Weekend – 3/16/2019”
Henry postponed moving into his new house twice for weather and this was the last straw. He was moving on Sunday cause he had the day off and some friends lined up. I was invited, but across the state. On a whim, I decided the weather stunk in St. Louis and decided to help Henry … Continue reading “Helping Henry Move – 3/2/2019”

Sonora on violin, back row second chair. What concert would be complete without ice cream or McDonald’s for those … Continue reading “Webster Groves Pops Concert – 2/20/2019”
I got a top box for my motorcycle and tried to install it. With the bike up on a stand, I found out that the mounting hardware wasn’t the right size. I have not decided what to do, but it still isn’t installed. And when I took the bike off the stand, I knocked it … Continue reading “January – 2019”
Being a fan of cars, I like to go to the auto show every few years to see what is out there. Sonora wanted to go with me this year. We got there before it opened and were able to get to the Million Dollar Mile first. Sonora wanted to check out the super fancy … Continue reading “St. Louis Auto Show – 1/27/2019”
I think today was “Take a Photo of Sonora Day”. I have an album with tons of photos of her in two different outfits and different poses. I guess I can’t complain because my little girl is growing up and very cute. I’m not sure what she is laughing at, but its funny! If she … Continue reading “Take a Photo of Sonora Day – 1/20/2019”
We love the snow partly because we don’t get enough of it. Sometimes, we even do crazy things! A look at how deep the snow is. That is a canoe I forgot to put away before the snow. I was too lazy to put on socks or shoes, so I went shopping in sandals. There … Continue reading “Snow – 1/12/2019”
