Day 925

We got up about 7.  I really wanted to sleep in,but got up anyway.  After pet stuff and breakfast I went out to install the battery in the Polaris.  Once I did it started and ran fine.  Then I put everything away and cleaned up the carport a little.  It was full of leaves.

We went to the club at 9:30.  The battery in the 5-stand controller was dead, so Dave asked us to go to Battery Plus to get a replacement.  They didn't have one, but looked hard for one.  I stopped at Mazda on the way hoe and told a salesman to find me a car.

When we got back I used an old USB charger to try to charge the 5-stand battery.  While that was working I searched for the rest of the station signs.  I finally found them and put them out.  Then I gave it to then new guy to try out.

The new guy showed me how to set the receiver address.  Then I went out and set the receivers on the 16 wireless stations to A and B.  I had to do some repair along the way.  When that was done I had a late lunch.

After lunch Dave wanted me to set the flurry, so I did.  It involved unloading two fully loaded machines and moving them to the stand.  Then I set them and the two machines that were already there.  After that I loaded all of the machines and set up the controller.  Finally I set up the stands and a scoring table.

The final task was to help finish loading the machines.  I did 4 and that was enough.  My back is killing me.

I ate dinner with the Boy Scouts.  The tickets were $50.  I'm glad I didn't have to pay.  The steak was OK, but the rest (asparagus, salad, and baked potato) weren't very good.

The Mazda guy sent us an email.  He found a car, but the color sucks (dark gray).  I wish the dumb asses would have listened to me a month ago.  We may end up with an Audi.

The evening was surfing.
