Day 29

For once I'm going to post on the same day rather than the next day.

Nothing much happened. I took Ellen to the airport. She'll be in Michigan with her father and sister for three weeks. At least we didn't have to get up early, the plane left at noon.

I was planning on going to the gun show afterward. Unfortunately I brought the dog with us. This seemed like a good idea at the time because the weather in Bulverde was cloudy and cool. However, the weather 25 miles south in San Antonio was sunny and warm. Too warm to leave the dog locked up in the truck while I went to the show. So back home it was.

I stopped at NAPA on the way home and got an oil filter and some oil for the truck. I'll stop by a place on Monday to see if they will install it for me at a reasonable cost. The NAPA store had a store cat that was a dead ringer for our first cat, a tabby. It lays in a box on the counter and collects petting from everyone who makes a purchase. I also stopped at the library and bought some used paperbacks at their book sale. Fifty cents apiece isn't a bad price.

The rest of the day was spent reading, drinking beer, and napping in the sun.
