We got up about 9, did the pet stuff and had breakfast. Then I went out to spread the Casoron. I did two things first: put the remaining small items in the basement and put Hooch's stuff in the car.
It wasn't raining today, but there was a breeze. the breeze actually helped with the Casoron application. I just pointed the spreader down wind and moved backwards aor sideways. I had enough to cover everything I wanted. There was a little left over to do a double application on some strategic spots.
When that was done ti was time to do errands. I had to go to Lowe's to get some materials to stop the leak around the fan in the shed. I ended up buying two types of caulk and a tub of Flex Seal paste. Then we stopped at the pet store to get some calming scent for the cats. It seems to make Devon feel good. The last errand was Baumann's so I could get some chocolate covered espresso beans for the trip.
I was planning on going home after that, but Ellen wanted to go to the Salem farm store. So we drove back down south. After that we went to Roth's because it was close. Then we finally went home.
I climbed up on the roof and cleaned the area around the vent. Then I had to wait for it to dry. I went inside and used on of the tubes of caulk to seal the inside edges around the vent. Then I went back to the trailer to wait for the outside to dry.
After a couple of hours the roof was dry, so I went out and applied the Flex Seal to the outside of the vent. It seemed to be good stuff. We'll see. I was disappointed that the container was only 4/3 full. Also it had some type of rope thing in it that took up volume. I think that was a manufacturing error. I barely had enough to do the job. I finish up with the second type of caulk on the outside tomorrow.
When I finished the roof it was a brilliant afternoon. It was warm and sunny with no clouds. I decided to shoot. I shot 75 rounds. That was enough. I shot fairly well, but the targets were kind of easy.
Ellen fixed BLT's for dinner. After dinner was TV.
