Some random salad Danelle made. Its fun to spot unique birds near home. Cats in boxes, what else is the Internet for? Still on one wheel! Hogan Haake

SLU had their day at the St. Louis Cardinals. We bought tickets before we learned that Corvin had a Cross Country meet the same day. So you’ll notice Corvin isn’t in any of the photos (and I’m not a fan so there was never a ticket for me). Laura went and they all had a … Continue reading “SLU Day at Cardinals – 8/30/2018”
Not to ruin the drama, but this is the last major day of the trip. I got a hold of a marina that had a pontoon boat we could rent, so we jumped on it. A quick visit to the grocery store across the street to get lunch supplies, then we drove half way back … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 6 – 8/10/2018”
I’ve been trying to rent a boat to go see Boldt Castle. Danelle, Steve, and I did this back in 2005 and had a great time. I guess its more popular as we couldn’t just get a boat at a moment’s notice. Sonora was very disappointed, but that is how things go. Just the same, … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 5 – 8/9/2018”
We got up early to get started with our long drive. Its Tuesday and we had a reservation for a Wednesday activity in New York. Today was about leisure travel westward. We started off visiting a few last minute things that I saw driving around Topsham ME, but didn’t see yet. The Androscoggin Swinging Bridge … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 3 – 8/7/2018”
Colleen invited us to stay in Maine two days so she could show us around where she and the kids live. We were excited to see some of the highlights of Maine. Mom and I stayed in a motel while Sonora spent two nights with Michaela. The next morning driving over to Colleen’s house, we … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 2 – 8/2/2018”
I promised my brother Hiatt that I would take his kids home after the summer to Maine. I was looking forward to a family vacation in the north east. I had not really spent any time there, so it would be a cool family trip. But two days after I told him I would do … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 1 – 8/2/2018”
Since we have a new cat, Sushi, there will be too many photos of her. Its hard not to like a kitten! There is no such thing as too much Brian Waldrop. Which one is real? They moved the bike rack at work, but didn’t do such a great job re-attaching it… I was worried … Continue reading “July – 2018”
Every summer we all look forward to the annual trek to Meramec State Park near Sullivan, Missouri, for the Stream Team Picnic. The weather is often nasty hot, but there are plenty of opportunities to go for a swim or float on a tube in the Meramec River and there is lots of shade at … Continue reading “Stream Team Annual Picnic – 7/28/2018”
Danelle has had a few surprise birthday parties for me. They are always a fun time and lots of planning. I think she was a bit surprised when her 40th birthday came and went with little fanfare. Unless you consider sending her to the beach for a week with friends a decent thing. Anyway, this … Continue reading “Danelle’s Surprise Birthday Party – 7/7/2018”
