The Hinyard-Lash Experience: Starring Leslie, Jeff, Esme, Brynn, Han, and other members of the Hinyard-Lash family

Moonlight Ramble

Wednesday, September 3, 2008

The Moonlight Ramble is one of the reasons we love St. Louis. Every August, one Saturday night at midnight, the streets of St. Louis close to cars and the bikes take over. Being that Leslie was still recovering and someone needed to stay home with Esme, she had to bow out this year, though she was nice enough to let Jeff ride. So, a few weeks ago, he joined a van-full of close friends — and 10,000+ other close friends — for this annual tradition. The pictures should speak for themselves…

Jeff calls it Blue Steel -- the glow sticks were a nice touch

There are always interesting costumes; here is just one

Quite a spread at Uncle Bill's

The ramble would not be complete without a 3am trip to Uncle Bills Pancake House
