How was the sleep?</p><p><br></p><p>Saw Lake Erie and dipped my toes in.</p><p><br></p><p>Did a quick tour of Buffalo in the morning. Canalsides, AKG Art Museum, war ships, and Charlie the Butcher Beef on Weck.</p><p><br></p><p>And yea, the sleep sucked but good thing I got to the car rental agency at 6.30am cause… they said there are limited walkups.</p><p><br></p><p>Donate to the show!
