The goal for Friday afternoon was for everyone to bring their leftovers down to the lake for everyone to enjoy and finish up all of the food so that you don't have to take it home. Sounds easy, right? Except that no one had any good food left. That didn't matter to us because we just gobbled up every scrap of food that was placed in front of us.

We were all excited just to be eating again, after starving for days to get to this point. As if you believe that. Us? Starve? We eat so much food that we put grocery stores out of business. We eat more food than an entire 3rd world country.

Wanna know what's great? When you're allowed to do something that would otherwise be illegal. There's this pile of rocks, and you're supposed to throw them (or hit them with a plastic bat) into the lake. Awesome.

We all got a crack at it, with Gary and I taking the first couple of swings. There really was nothing else going on, so we figured that it would alright to spend an hour mindlessly hitting rocks. 

Gary's intent was to hit is brother Kevin, who was circling in a kayak, with a couple of rocks. I know you're going to say that it's mean, but we were just kidding and Kevin stayed far enough away from shore.

Gary had to prove to the world that he was better than everyone else, but he ended up being upstaged by Jenny, who hit the ball like nobody's business. If you are a burglar, never try to break in to Jenny's house and try to steal her stuff. She'll grab whatever blunt object that is at her disposal and beat you senseless with it.
