Another great month has come and gone. Corvin and I started our unicycle trip and had a successful trip. Along the way, he started keeping a log of each visited in a pineapple notebook. One of my co-workers noticed the book and thought it was funny. His wife got a mirror as a gift for … Continue reading “June – 2019”
My sister Holly is moving to Kansas City after being in Wichita for about 10 years. This is super exiting for me as i don’t often see her as its a very long drive from St. Louis. Now she will be closer and we can see her and her family. This moving journey starts out … Continue reading “Holly Moving – 6/21/2019”
The last day of our vacation. We woke up early in KC and spent some time before heading home to St. Louis. But not before having fun at the house. Of interest to me, we passed 222,222 miles on the odometer during this trip. And when we pulled into the driveway, we ended with 4,758.6 … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/14/2019”
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”

This meant that we got to go a little farther than normal. 14 miles of great whitewater paddling! I would … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/11/2019”
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 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”
Corvin and Danelle got up super early and got sunrise photos at Angel Point. I slept in till 7 when I also woke up Sonora. Corvin and I did our unicycle ride for Arizona on the road. I had some issues with the hills as we started mostly straight up hill. The elevation was around … Continue reading “Southwest Summer Adventure – 6/6/2019”
