On the Road again....

Buffalo Bills, always wondered if they existed!!!
Well, after our stay in Niagara Falls, it was time for us to move on towards Mt. Rushmore.  As we headed Southwest on the interstate, we ventured thru Buffalo, NY.  Home of the 4x Superbowl losers and supposedly the best chicken wings you can ever have in your life.  Laura and I continued on and headed into the not-so-great state of Ohio.

Now my goal was to drive straight thru because I had absolutely no interest in anything in Ohio.  The NFL Hall of Fame is the only exception.  Unfortunately we got hungry around the "great" city of Cleveland and had to make a Pit Stop.

What a surprise we were in for!!!  Now I'm definitely known in my inner circle to exaggerate just a tiny bit, but I promise this time I'm not.  As we hopped out of the Tahoe and took in all the bright lights of this Chicken Wing Shangri La, we were greeted by a young couple that had less teeth than our Jack-o-lantern had last year.  They were ecstatic we were dining at the Lube tonight and told us we would never forget it!!!  We felt like we were in a scene "From Dusk till Dawn." As we ventured in the doors, the aroma of 20 different wing sauces and 4 ft. beers was wafting thru the air.  I was in fat guy heaven, even Laura had the euphoric stare of a kid in a candy store for the first time.  As we were being seated, they told us it was all you could eat wing night and that there was a complimentary nacho bar that we could help ourselves too.  Ok....so maybe there is one good thing going for the state of Ohio!  So fast forward 3 hours later and Laura and I are doing the chicken wing wobble out to the car and we instantly decide, we need a room.  As we climbed into the Tahoe, we just sat there with a feeling of fullness that I'm sure is illegal in many countries.   So after a few long minutes, we jumped on the highway and we were on our way.  We made it a whole 6 miles, before we settled on a room and fell into a deep wing induced coma.  We would awaken many hours later and would head for our next destination, but not before both acknowledging that we couldn't have picked a better place to make a "Pit Stop" then we did when we journeyed into "The Lube!!!"

The Lube..best wings I've ever had!!!

    1. We left July of 2011. We have stayed in many areas for a few weeks, but we've been in Vegas for a few months. We love it here. The next place we want to stay awhile is Seattle!
