Its always nice to have friends. In this instance, JoJo called and asked if I wanted to paddle part of the flooded Meramec river. I’m always up for that. I packed up and met them at a place I’ve never paddled before in south Saint Louis. Here are a few shots of our paddle. The … Continue reading “Flood Paddle – 6/18/2019”
8/3/2019 Having just finished Montana the day before, the plan was to drive down south and dip into Wyoming and Yellowstone National Park for a quick ride. When we got up at 5 am, the ground was wet from rain the night before, but looked to be clearing up for a nice day. We got … Continue reading “State 18 – Wyoming”
8/2/2019 We spent the night in Wallace, Idaho.You may not know this but this is the center of the universe since 2004. Its a really quaint town off I-90 in a mountain valley that just begs you to spend time walking the streets. I wish we had more time to hang out and explore every … Continue reading “State 16 – Idaho”
August 1, 2019 When we planned this trip, Corvin picked out this uni-cycling location all on his own. I had a heavy hand in most of our riding locations, but this one was 100% choice. And its one of our favorite rides of the whole trip so far! We originally flew into Spokane but decided … Continue reading “State 15 – Washington”
Today was probably the most disappointing day of the trip. We drove to Pikes Peak to go up the mountain. We found out when we got there, it was under construction. We were able to drive about 2/3 the way to the top, then had to park and get into vans to be shuttled to … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/13/2019”
We woke up from a night of camping and enjoyed the sounds of the campground. We didn’t expect ducks, but they were fun to watch. They had lots of stuff laying around that we saw on a morning walk. With the campsite packed up, we headed on to the Great Sand Dunes National Park. We … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/12/2019”
First off, Happy Birthday to me! Nothing like being with my family on my birthday to make it a great day! We started off the day driving to Arches National Park where Corvin and I did our unicycle thing. Of course, there was tons of scenery for us all to take in! After we were … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/10/2019”
This day started out with an early walk for Corvin and I along the Vegas strip. It was interesting to see it on a Sunday morning. It was very empty and we even saw maintenance being done. Not sure what they are doing, its the Billagio Fountains they are working on. We took a long … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/9/2019”
This morning started out with Corvin and I uni-cycling the Las Vegas strip to get our Nevada complete. Once we completed it, we came back to the room to clean up. Corvin even completed some of his paperwork for his class. The first family thing to do today was visit the Hoover Damn. I’ve driven … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/8/2019”
We got up from our hotel and were on the road at 6am. The goal was for Corvin and I to unicycle California before it got super hot outside. We got to the head of Mustard Canyon and started riding at 8am. We didn’t get very far before the gravel road was too rough to … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/7/2019”
