August – 2018
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
Paddling With Sonora – 8/31/2018
I was restless after work and wanted to do something. I was thinking about a motorcycle ride but felt like I should do more stuff with the family. So I asked Sonora if she wanted to paddle with me and she said yes. So we set off to Greentree where I start most of my … Continue reading “Paddling With Sonora – 8/31/2018”
SLU Day at Cardinals – 8/30/2018
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”
Riding North – 8/25/2018
I took another evening ride going north. I ended up in the land between the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. I was going to ride north to a free bridge, but it got late much sooner than I expected. So I gook some cool night photography and headed home on the Golden Eagle Ferry to save … Continue reading “Riding North – 8/25/2018”
Moto Ride – 8/17/2018
Part of the joy of motorcycling for me is to be spontaneous. This means picking random roads to see where the go and stopping when you would continue in a car. Today’s ride had me out by Waterfall before I took a new road. I ended up in Pacific, Mo in an area I had … Continue reading “Moto Ride – 8/17/2018”
Kelly Clarkson – 8/14/2018
Being a software developer, its almost expected that I’m a little weird or eccentric. I embrace this to make my job more enjoyable. One of the ways I do this is by keeping a theme. I got my theme of “Kelly Clarkson” from the move 40 Year Old Virgin. When Steve Carell’s character was getting … Continue reading “Kelly Clarkson – 8/14/2018”
Ecological Society of America 2018
The Ecological Society of America held their annual conference on August 5-10, 2018, in New Orleans. This was my first time attending and I have to say that I was overwhelmed! There were over a thousand scientists in attendance and the wonderful individuals I met were as diverse as the ecological subject areas that were … Continue reading “Ecological Society of America 2018”
Kids To Maine -Part 6 – 8/10/2018
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”
Kids To Maine -Part 5 – 8/9/2018
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”
Kids To Maine -Part 4 – 8/8/2018
Today is what all the rush was about… We had a 10am reservation at the Revolution Rail Company.They have rail biking excursions on old railroad lines that are no longer in service. I had to reserve a few months in advance because its popular and fills up fast! I should have done it 1 day … Continue reading “Kids To Maine -Part 4 – 8/8/2018”
