Day 2328

 I woke up about 8, played games for a few minutes and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After breakfast it was just surfing until 11:30 when I went to lunch with Lee.

We ate at the Mexican place that moved into the old Pieous place.  We were going to the BBQ place at Belterra, but it wasn't open.  That turned out to be OK.  The Mexican place was good.  We had a good talk about a lot of things.  Lee is very excited because he just bought a new zero turn motor.  He says he'll mow our lawn just to have more to mow.

When we got back I did a little surfing while Ellen ate.  Then we went to Lowe's to get some marker flags for the sewer stuff.  I want to put them up if Lee is going to mow.  We also stopped at the post office and NAPA.  I needed wiper blades.  The counter guy offered to put them on.  I'm glad I said yes.  The blades came with two mounts and three adapters.  It took him a while to figure out the right combination.

The last stop was HEB.  We didn't really need anything, but we managed to spend $40 anyway.

Some parts for the Power Wagon were here when we got back.  I got the truck out and installed them.  Unfortunately they didn't solve the problem. After a fair amount of debugging I discovered that the problem was how the servo was mounted.  I changed it and things worked.  Then I calibrated the steering.

While I was doing all of that the winch servo broke.  I worked on it until dinner.  Ellen fixed stir fry.  After dinner I worked on the servo some more.  Lee and his daughter came over.  I gave her $200.  They brought their dog over.  It was really excited.  It's a puppy.  Lee, Ellen, and I talked for more than half an hour.  Reagan got bored and took the dog outside.

When Lee left I went back to the winch servo.  I replaced it and put everything back together.  The replacement servo crapped out while I was winding the wire back on the drum.  I decided to bag it and put everything away.

While I was doing this I noticed that the wheel hexes are really loose.  I got on Amazon and ordered better ones.  They will be here in a couple of days.

By then it was 10.  I surfed for a while and went to bed.
