We kind of stayed in bed a little late today. When I got up there was a squirrel at the feeder. I went outside and had a perfect shot at him. Only I missed. There has to be something wrong with the rifle's sights.
After breakfast the first thing I did was call the insurance company. The guy said he'll call Camping World and try to get the ball rolling. I hope he does. A little after that I saw two squirrels out at the feeder. They ran off before I could get the gun.
After that it was more surfing. I looked on the web and found one nearby estate sale that looked interesting. I was basically killing time until it was reasonable to go to the post office.
We went to the estate sale first. There wasn't anything there we wanted. That may be because the sale started yesterday. The house itself was a mess. It would need all of the flooring redone and a complete coat of paint to make it even halfway livable. They had already ripped up the carpet in one room. The place stunk, literally.
After that we went to the post office. The parking lot was filled again, but there wasn't a lot of people in the place. I'm not sure what was going on. There was one package waiting, but there should have been three. After that I didn't want to go home, so we went to Costco. The excuse was to buy some water. We had Costco dogs for lunch there. That's the last time I'll do that. I guess Costco dogs are like pepperoni, permanently off my list of foods.
I didn't stop at the park because Lucy did so much yesterday. She didn't seem to mind.
When we got home I put a target up on the fence to check the rifle zero. It was fine. It shot a little high, but every shot would have hit a squirrel sized target easily. Then I had an idea. I had been steadying the plastic end of the rifle on the fence when I took my shots. When I tried shooting with the plastic end on the rest the shots wouldn't even hit the paper. Problem solved. Next time I won't do that.
That was pretty much all I accomplished today. It was warm, almost 80. So I didn't want to work on the train. I just surfed instead. I watched Gold Derp and the zombies in the evening.
