My employer, DeckCommerce participated in the DevUp conference (formerly Days of .NET) this year. This meant that the company had a booth for recruiting. It was a fun place to gather and talk about the company to others in the community. And no booth is complete without some sort of giveaway. We had a plastic … Continue reading “DevUp Conference – 10/16/2017”
Sonora wanted a different color for her room, so we needed to paint it. While we didn’t get before and after photos (pink to white), we did capture some of the antics! Hogan Haake
Likely to be the last warm Sunset Race of the year, I made sure to get out there early and get a short unicycle ride in with the sunshine! When I got back from my ride, I was in time to see JoJo getting her boat down from on top of her van. A feat … Continue reading “October Sunset Race – 10/12/2017”
We had a Groupon for bowling with 6 people. The kids each wanted to invite a friend and before we knew it, the kids each had two friends. So Danelle and I decided to watch while the kids and their friends had fun. Before I knew it, all four friends were spending the night. Lucky … Continue reading “Kids and Friends – 10/7/2017”
We contracted our neighbor Jonathan to come out to our property and build a deck. I’ve tried and failed to build stuff out there to date. This was our first visit out there to see his finished work.

We had another decent turnout this month. Some semi-regulars and some new people. No complaints and perfect weather! Hogan Haake

I am on the board of the … Continue reading “Paddle Mo 2017”
I drug Corvin out for his longest unicycle ride ever on the MRT (just over 8 miles). We probably walked a mile, but it was still worth it to spend time with him and get better riding. Just after the half way point, we switched with me on the 29″ and Corvin on my 36″. … Continue reading “Mississippi River Trail with Corvin – 9/7/2017”
Like any good fool, I often volunteer myself for work that I don’t have to do. In this case, my brother Hiatt was talking about his house needing to be painted. I suggested that he schedule it for Labor Day weekend so we had an extra day. He of course obliged and I was not … Continue reading “Painting Hiatt’s House – 9/2/2017”
Another good unicycling month even including the family. I also caught the awards ceremony for the MR340, cheering on my friends! It wouldn’t be a little adventure with some adversity. On my ride home, the throttle cable on the motorcycle broke on the highway. It was a bit of a close call coasting to a … Continue reading “August – 2017”
