We got up a little after 8, did pet stuff and had breakfast. Then we left for Round Rock. Ostensibly it was to go to the gun show. The real reason was to drive the car. It was fun. There wasn't any traffic in the morning. Everyone was doing 10 miles over the speed limit. We took the toll roads just to get their quicker.
We had fun at the show. Ellen even got interested in some of the guns we saw. I saw several rare old guns that I'd either never seen before or have seen only occasionally. One vendor had a S&W .22 with a threaded barrel on sale at the internet price. So I bought it. Ellen even approved.
We got finished a little after noon and went to the fish restaurant across the street. I had a really good shrimp and rice meal. Ellen had fish and chips. She liked the fries and thought the fish was so-so.
The next stop was Fry's. We really didn't need anything, but it was fun to look around. I ended up buying a new mouse and Ellen bought a stand for her laptop. We also stopped at Rudy's on the way back to get some BBQ for lunch.
We didn't get home until 4. I really wanted to get something useful done today, so I got the saw out. I strung three extension cords out to where the dead tree was in the side yard. I cut it up and piled the pieces back in the woods. It was a little easier than I thought because the wood was really dry and light. The whole effort took me about an hour.
It was about 70 with 75% humidity while I was working. I was hot an sweaty when I finished. So I took a shower. Then it was some surfing before dinner.
After dinner was TV and reading. I also took a little nap. For some reason I was really sleepy.
