I do lots of paddling, but I don’t often include my family. In fact, I think this might be the only time this year I’ve taken the kids out in the boats. Its hard to get them to agree on doing anything together. But Danelle needed to study, and that meant getting the three of … Continue reading “Paddling With Kids – 8/26/2016”
We went to Eckert’s Family Farms to pick peaches. They were nearing the end of the season and it sounded like a nice family activity. If nothing else, the kids enjoy the tractor ride out to the picking area. When they dropped us off, we started looking around and found the trees empty of fruit. … Continue reading “Picking Peaches – 8/21/2016”
Some random photos from this month.
The whole family went out to the city carnival this year. It threatened to rain all day as it had done all week, so we had our rain gear ready. We bought some tickets and did one family ride together. After the family ride, we split up the remaining tickets. Corvin met a friend and … Continue reading “Webster Groves Carnival – 7/4/2016”
Hannah is near the end of her stay for this visit. Danelle was busy with a prior commitment, so I thought I would take her and the kids out for an adventure. We started the day at the Melvin Price Lock and Dam and the associated National Great Rivers Museum. We were hoping to get … Continue reading “More Fun With Hannah – 6/3/2016”
I’m trying to get my kids excited about uni-cycling. Its easy to see somebody do it, but much harder to do it yourself. They have seen me do it tons, but I’m now trying to get them to do it. This means that I have to be out there with them to make it happen. … Continue reading “Unicycle Training – 5/7/2016”
We’re shaking off the winter as the sun is coming out more. Grandma Carol with Danelle and Sonora in the kitchen all smiles! And if you didn’t know it was warm yet, you can tell by the number of unicycle photos I’ve taken, getting out as much as possible! Hogan Haake
I had a work party earlier in the day. One of my co-workers brought out a giant Jenga set and it was quite a hit! I went straight from the party out to the hardware store and purchased enough wood to make my own set. Once made the kids and I proceeded to play a … Continue reading “Giant Jenga – 4/23/2016”
I took an evening unicycle ride and Corvin tagged along. I never know what I’m going to see, but at that speed, I see it all. This time was no surprise. We got to play king of the mountain on the ice from the Brentwood skating rink. Hogan Haake
My motorcycle was due for inspection to get new license plates. There are not nearly enough places that will inspect motorcycles in Missouri. So I went with a co-worker and his sister down to Surdyke Harley in Festus Missouri. We always look for an excuse to ride and they had inspections on Saturday! Corvin wanted … Continue reading “Motorcycle Inspection – 4/17/2016”
