We got up a little after 8, did pet stuff, and had breakfast. The day started off crappy. I'd gained 2.7 lbs in the last week. That wiped out almost all of the last 4 weeks' progress. I'm going back on a really restrictive diet.
After breakfast we went out to shoot the course. I took the 28 ga. I hadn't shot that well at FITASC, and I didn't shoot it well today. Part of the problem might have been the light loads, but most was just me. There were some good targets out there. We'll probably shoot tomorrow morning also.
After shooting we loaded the dog and went to McMinnville for the farmers' market. We got there an hour before it started. At least that got us a prime parking space. We used the hour to walk around the town and go through some antique stores. I found a couple of things for Patty. We would have gone to the city park, but they don't allow dogs.
At noon we went to the market. We bought fruit - strawberries, peaches, and raspberries. Then we had lunch at the bakery place we ate at before. They have good sandwiches.
On the way home we stopped at the ferry and let the dog swim. She did 23 retrieves. She would have done more, but I called a halt. It was a good thing I did, she's really stiff tonight.
When we got back we gave Vandy some strawberries. Ellen's earplugs were in. Vandy insisted that we pay her cost, she wouldn't let us give her more. I took a nap there while Ellen talked with Vandy and others.
About 5:30 we went home for dinner. After dinner and a little TV it was cool enough to work in the shed. I installed a switch in the halogen lights so I could turn them off when it was hot. Then I reloaded the 28 ga I shot. I reamed out the powder bushing a little to make them hotter. Then I did my exercises.
That took until about 9:30. The rest of the evening was surfing and reading.
