$100, a Garage Door, Boating, and Death Wings

On Saturday, Gary's former bus aid needed help moving, and she said that she would give $100 to us if we brought some people to help. It only took us a little while cause they didn't even need that much help. After that, we planned to go boating. 

There was a little change of plans when Tyler turned the handle to open their garage and the handle fell off. So Gary and I tried to help. Finally after Tyler's bloody knuckles, a sawsall, and the neighbor lady helping out with every kind of tool you could imagine, we got it open. It was then fixed temporarily with duct tape so that it could be opened again later.

I guess it is true what they say about duct tape.

Then we went boating with Jeremy's family. They were kind enough to let us tag along. 

Holding on for dear life because Gary says "Go faster!"
Jeremy is crazy good at wakeboarding!
Playing King of the Tube!

Gary wakeboarding--his skills have tripled in the last few weeks!

Afterwards, we took our $100 and went to the new Buffalo's restaurant in Hurricane where the Death Valley Wings burn your insides. It was to the point that you might have thrown up. Take a look at everyone's faces. Haha! If you go there, don't let the waitress tell you that they are a little hot. 

Yes, those are tears!
Ah! Give Megs something quick to relieve the burning!
Gary wasn't the only one crying!
Kim thought just a taste was enough!
Tyler tasted it...and he might be sick.

These wings were so hot--to the point where you know you are going to have some type of war zone in your stomach for the whole night. We'll remember to bring some Tums to pass around the table next time. If you can eat ten of them in 60 seconds, you get a free T-shirt. I think Gary is considering undergoing training to try it next time. Let us know if you want to be a witness.

I didn't think it was possible for Gary, but judging by those tears, he has met his hot sauce match!!!
