Today was looking up. We partly cloudy skies and a full parking lot of people escaping the rain the night before. It wasn’t much of a drive before we made it to the New Mexico border. It almost seems like they were worried you might miss the state border… With the border out of the … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/2/2019”
Our first full day of vacation started with Corvin, Danelle, and I getting up early. Sonora slept in as we crept down for a preview of the hotel’s included breakfast before heading to a bike path in downtown Tulsa. This was Corvin’s and my first state to record in our 48 wheels trip to unicycle … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/1/2019”
Today is the first day of our summer family vacation. I’m a bit nervous because we’re taking a 2 week vacation. I’m always a bit worried when I leave work for an extended period of time. Thinking if my job will be there when I get back, do they still need me. These thoughts all … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 5/31/2019”
Danelle and I registered for the South Dakota Kayak Challenge for the third time (First and Second SDKC). For this trip, we decided a team would be a good choice and picked Melissa and Megan to be on our team. Melissa and Megan were new to racing, but we thought they would keep the fun … Continue reading “South Dakota Kayak Challenge – 5/24/2019”
May 9, 2019 This was our first Sunset Race that almost didn’t happen that wasn’t our choice. We’ve voluntarily skipped when there was too much ice or thunderstorms. But this one was blocked due to flooding. Jason, JoJo and Melissa looking it over. We walked a ways past the road closed to get to this … Continue reading “126th Sunset Race”
Corvin and I went for an afternoon unicycle ride. We ended up riding by a neighborhood pump track. We both tried and failed pretty good! There was video, but we got psyched out before really doing anything. After the pump track, the rest of the ride was pretty laid back. Corvin looks like he’s coming … Continue reading “Unicycles at the Pump Track – 5/4/2019”
I purchased tickets from CineConcerts to see the St. Louis Symphony play “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”. The jest of this is that the movie is played on a large screen while the orchestra plays the musical score of the movie live in front of us. We also took Danelle’s parents with … Continue reading “Harry Potter at the Symphony – 4/14/2019”
Our normal monthly paddle on the Meramec river. Some photos of our fun. Andy playing Humpty Dumpty. This time he didn’t fall or break, but he also didn’t have time to paddle. Still awesome that he came out to see us! Bernie Arnold brought me a boat to borrow. We paddled for a bit, but … Continue reading “125th Sunset Race”
We’re training for the South Dakota Kayak Challenge and taking Megan Pagliaro who we talked into the race. Megan is new to paddling and racing, but we knew that she was going to be good company. To the mission today was to get her out on the water and get her more comfortable with the … Continue reading “Creve Coeur Paddle – 4/7/2019”
Austin Calzada is a young kid that I consider a friend. He recently had an article in the River Front Times about his unicycling. I have a collection of unicycles. He wanted to ride a few, so I brought them all out to play. Here are a few photos and a video of the ride. … Continue reading “Unicycling With Austin – 3/23/2019”
