Day 128

We didn't do too much today. We did go to a estate sale. It was a good sale, but there wasn't much that interested us. I got a few screws and hardware for the garage. Ellen got a box of envelopes.

It was cloudy in the morning and we left the sale to go to the park to run the dog. She only got in a few minutes of running before it started to rain pretty hard. We put her back in the car and went over to Kohl's to look at some patio furniture that they have on sale starting tomorrow. It's not clear if the stuff we want will be on sale. I'll probably go back tomorrow.

By the time we got home the roads were almost dry and the clouds were almost gone. It looks like the gutters are working fine. By mid-afternoon the sky was sunny and it was 83 degrees.

When we got home Ellen went to the garage to sand and paint the chest. I printed out the manuals for the gate opener and went up to take a look at it. When I opened the control box it was filled with fire ants. I couldn't do anything with the box except to verify that the latch wasn't wired up. I'll have to make up a harness and kill the ants before I can attempt to get the latch working.
