Day 172

We didn't do much in the morning. I completed gluing the Viaduct supports together and did a lot of surfing. Mom read and Ellen surfed.

It was in the 80's today, so we left the dog at home when we went to get the mail. The package wasn't there (more on that later). After that we went over to Kohl's so I could buy some shorts. While I was doing that Mom bought some shorts and a shirt. It was after 2, so we stopped at BJ's for lunch. For some reason they were really slow. We didn't get our food until after 3. On the way home we stopped at Randall's for a few things.

When I got home I e-mailed the vendor about the package. He e-mailed back that he had mailed it to Oregon. The Texas address is clearly marked on the payment. He had to work just to find the Oregon address. I won't see the package for lunch. Needless to say he won't get a 5-star rating.

In the evening I did two auctions and won them both. I got a neat looking freight house and a coal car. Tomorrow there's a couple of engines that I'm looking at closely. We'll have to see how much they are bid up.
