Fast forward to today and I decided it would be fun to play a round there. Danelle and her co-worker Hannah … Continue reading “Disc Golf at Piasa Harbor – 8/20/2021”
This month we were super excited to go paddling. Only there was a strong storm forecast to come in right as we start. Just the same, I packed up the boats. Down at the river, I unloaded the boats just in case the storm passed. The canoe in the back is about 120 lbs, so … Continue reading “153rd Sunset Race 8/12/2021”

Initially I wanted to do a trip … Continue reading “Summer Vacation – 2021”
