I had to get up at 5:45 to let the dog out. Of course I went back to sleep and woke up at 7:45 to go out and open the gate. Then it was back in bed before getting up for good a little before 9. Then it was pet stuff and breakfast.
After breakfast I couldn't do anything. I had to sit in the house and wait for the phone to ring. So of course I surfed. Ellen went to the doctor for her thyroid biopsy. The phone range about 11:30 and the Traeger showed up a little after 12. They guy was nice enough to put it on the back porch for me. There's no way I could have moved it myself.
Unpacking the thing took quite awhile. Then I started assembling it. That went OK until I had to stand it up on it's legs. There was no way I could do it, it was too heavy. Luckily Ellen had gotten back by then and we both barely got it upright. My back hurt for the rest of the day.
I was done with the cleanup except for cutting up the cardboard and getting rid of the pallet by 3:00. Then we took Ellen's guns to the stock maker. He's up on 290 just past McCoy's. He has a wonderful shop full of wood blanks. He does his work with laser scanners and CNC machines. It's 21st century way of doing gun stocks. He's going to repair the one stock and modify the other. We have to go back tomorrow and give him a check for a deposit.
It was 5 by then and we went to the BBQ place in Belterra. It was OK, but we had sandwiches rather than BBQ. Then we went home to feed some hungry pets.
After dinner was some surfing and watching a movie.
