Hannah came in for a few days during her spring break to hang out with us. Here are some highlights of her visit. Danelle picked her up from the Amtrak bus (as the tracks were flooded out). From there, they went straight downtown to get photos. With pictures and food out of the way, there … Continue reading “Hannah Weekend – 3/22/2019”
Oklahoma Texas More to come! And of course more details. Hogan & Corvin Haake
We took a family weekend to Memphis, TN. We started early Saturday morning and took our new ’07 Camry Hybrid. The kids love this car because of the sun roof and maybe the leather seats. We had a few ideas of what we wanted to see. During the drive, Danelle used the Internet on her … Continue reading “Memphis Weekend – 3/16/2019”
Henry postponed moving into his new house twice for weather and this was the last straw. He was moving on Sunday cause he had the day off and some friends lined up. I was invited, but across the state. On a whim, I decided the weather stunk in St. Louis and decided to help Henry … Continue reading “Helping Henry Move – 3/2/2019”

Actually, we both agree its a made up holiday, but that is another topic. I started off the Sunset Race with a unicycle ride. Even after all these times … Continue reading “123rd Sunset Race – 2/14/2019”
We love the snow partly because we don’t get enough of it. Sometimes, we even do crazy things! A look at how deep the snow is. That is a canoe I forgot to put away before the snow. I was too lazy to put on socks or shoes, so I went shopping in sandals. There … Continue reading “Snow – 1/12/2019”
We had a large snow storm hit St. Louis and I decided it would be fun to go out driving in the snow. Corvin was excited to join me as he also wanted to drive in the snow. I picked a decent sized street and started heading west. I had an idea where we might … Continue reading “Snow and the Wrong House! – 1/11/2019”
I love paddling and getting invited to go paddling. JoJo invited me to join her for a nice morning paddle. The group included Ken, Mark, and Judy. Judy says Hi! JoJo getting in on the photos. We stopped here for lunch and to look at eagles flying around. Hogan Haake
We have issues with our van doors freezing shut in the winter time. Corvin wasn’t having it and ripped the handle off the van door. I taped it back on temporarily. On the work front, Jeff Hug was out for paternity, so we decorated his desk with leftover supplies. My beard was looking decent… And, … Continue reading “December 2018”
