Adventureland


Company outing...tons of fun!

COOOOOLD BEEEEEER!



We took the boy to a couple of Iowa Cubs minor league games. Next thing you know he's rigged up a vendors cart with my bungee chords and his used box of sidewalk chalk. He never said the words, but I knew what he was thinkin'.

Iowa Games Triathlon - Ogden, Iowa

Note to racers!

Iowa Games officials WILL NOT, I repeat, WILL NOT handicap your race time based upon the number of corndogs you ate at Adventureland the night before.
It was a short race including about 300 participants (including ex-Iowa football great Tim Dwight), 1/4 mile swim, 15k bike, 5k run.

Jeff's time - 1:23:13...not bad...considering...(Tim only beat me by 5 minutes...I'm either getting ready for the NFL, or he's getting older...you make the call!)
