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”
By some miracle, I was able to get Hannah to wake up early when she was visiting for an early morning paddle. While the official wake up time was 5 am, we didn’t get out for another thirty minutes as she acclimated to the morning! In a short while, we were at the ramp getting … Continue reading “Early Paddle with Hannah – 6/3/2016”

Hannah came to visit us during her winter break from school. We didn’t waste any time, from the moment we picked her up, we headed out to Waterfall. 141 ramp from I-44 was still closed as they were cleaning up debris from the flooding. You can see extra water where there normally isn’t any. The … Continue reading “Hannah in STL – 1/2/2016”
The first half of this day was the most frustrating day of my whole trip. I started with me waking up and trying my best to sleep in. The motel was nice.

Christmas fell on Thursday and I still had to work on Friday. So after a short day at the office, we left in the early afternoon for Kansas City to celebrate with my family.
