We went to a party at the Saint Louis University Biology department to carve pumpkins with Danelle’s fellow students. We all had a good time and the pumpkins turned out well. The food provided was a perfect distraction to keep the kids happy as well. Hogan Haake
We participated in our first Moonlight Ramble this year. Its a 10 to 20 mile bicycle (and now unicycle) ride through downtown St. Louis starting at midnight. The original date for the ride was while we were on vacation but due to weather concerns, it was postponed. It got postponed twice more due to political … Continue reading “Moonlight Ramble – 10/21/2018”
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”
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”
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”
I took the kids out to Grant’s trail for a quick evening ride. Corvin got some time on the 36″ unicycle. We had a great time! Hogan Haake
We took the kids out of school and invited some SLU students to come out to Waterfall to enjoy the event with us. It was away from civilization and promised to have a decent view. Our property was in the path of the totality, making it a perfect viewing spot! We decided to spend the … Continue reading “Solar Eclipse at Waterfall – 8/21/2017”
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. It wans’t the worst way to waste away the day, but it is far from a … Continue reading “House On The Rock – 8/4/2017”
Our family vacation this year was a trip to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA). I was last there in 1992 just before my sister Hannah was born and I was eager to return with my family. We started our trip with a scenic drive. I started by taking the kids on the Golden Eagle … Continue reading “Family Vacation to BWCA – 7/28/2017”
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. I like hearing Corvin talk about his life and the things that interest him. He even got up on the big unicycle for a bit. While he can … Continue reading “Katy Trail with Corvin – 7/6/2017”
