Day 2334

 I woke up at 8:30 and played games for a while.  I only had a couple of things on the to do list.  Then I got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After breakfast I went outside to do tires.

It was 72 degrees, and 95% humidity.  In other words it was miserable.  I got out the old compressor and filled up the truck tires.  Then I got out the new Dremel compressor to fill up the trailer tires.  It isn't worth shit.  It might fill up beach balls and air mattresses, but it's worthless for tires.  I got out the old compressor and filled up the trailer tires.  I also torqued the lug nuts.

By the time that was done I was soaked in sweat and very tired.  I hooked the trailer camera to a charger and went inside to recuperate.  I spent the next couple of hours surfing and eating lunch.  Eventually I went back outside to work on the Ranger.

I took the cover off the Ranger and looked at the battery.  The positive terminal was covered with corrosion.  It was also low on water.  I filled the battery with distilled water and then put the trickle charger on it.

Everything else for tomorrow needs to be done tomorrow (today is Easter), so I spent most of the rest of the afternoon surfing.  I went out a couple of times to check the charger - still charging.

Ellen fixed sloppy joes for dinner.  After dinner I watched a movie.  About halfway through I went out and checked.  The battery was charged.  It was tool late to move the Ranger though.  Instead I got Ellen and we made sure that the trailer camera was working.  It is.

Then it was back to finish the movie.  Tomorrow is going to be a little busy.  I wish I could have gotten the Ranger done.  Oh well.
