That same day, after we left the lake, we stopped in Vinton at a park to celebrate a birthday! A friend of ours, Tyler, was turning 30, and his wife Jenny put on a big party for him. I used to teach with Jenny, and she definitely threw the party teacher-style: organized, well-thought-out, creative, and fun! It was a "Wanted" cowboy theme...he was completely surprised by a kidnapping and everything. Unfortunately, we missed the surprise (we, ahem, ran out of gas when leaving the lake and had a long delay...thankfully someone stopped to help us and gave Aaron a ride to the gas station; otherwise we would have been out there the rest of the evening. It was completely my fault and it will certainly never happen again), but we heard the story of it all when we got there.
