House On The Rock – 8/4/2017
On the way home from our vacation in Boundary Waters, we decided to stop for a half day at “House On The Rock“. I’ve heard about it many times and about how good it is. My feelings are different.

Hiatt and Family in STL – 7/18/2017
On their way to Disney World, Hiatt, Kris, Rylan, Michaela, and Sean stopped by our house. It had the added bonus that it put them closer to Disney and was free 🙂 While they were here, Rylan wanted something to drink, but we didn’t have much to offer. So I suggested that the kids and … Continue reading “Hiatt and Family in STL – 7/18/2017”

At Waterfall, part of the property was a derelict shed. It was only getting worse, so I decided to knock it down before it fell on somebody. Here are the results of my initial knockdown. Hogan Haake

Katy Trail with Corvin – 7/6/2017
Corvin and I went out for a unicycle ride on the Katy Trail. We didn’t set any distance or time records, but we did spend time together.

First Waterfall Paddle – 6/24/2017
We finally had our first paddle at Waterfall. We went from Morris Mill back to our property. After we got settled, there is a bit of rapid to get through very close to the start.
