While it was cool, right after breakfast I went out to the layout and installed the leads that I had soldered. That gave me a whole collection of connectors.
We went over to Zilker today and parked by loop 1. We went over the bridge and let Lucy swim. She swam for a long time. She did at least 30 retrieves. When we stopped she was really tired, but didn't want to quit.
Even though she'd been swimming she insisted on pulling me as we walked. We walked the 3 mile loop and she pulled most of the way. The only time she didn't pull was when we were going up hill. It was after 1 when we got back to the car and it was getting hot. We stopped at the hamburger place and got hamburgers. I think they're the best we've found in Austin.
When we went to the post office there were two packages. One was a car I had ordered and the other was the order from the internet store. I now have more than enough stuff to keep me busy for quite awhile.
When we got home I soldered up all of the connectors that I'd collected in the morning. They made 40 pairs. Then I just screwed around on the internet and watched TV. It was too hot to go outside.
After dinner I went out and installed a few of the leads that I'd soldered. I also fit the bridge that I'd bought. It isn't long enough. I'll have to buy another one.
Ebay pissed me off. I'd been watching a locomotive for days. As the auction was ending it was a good price. I bid 15 cents more than the selling price, but ebay didn't give it to me. That sucks.
