Day 2771

 We got up at 7:30, did the pet stuff, and had breakfast.  Of course the sewer guy didn't show up, so I surfed until it was a little warmer.  Then I went outside to attach the box to the trailer.

I got all of the tools out and everything set up.  Then I called Ellen out.  I needed someone to hold the box while I marked where the holes needed to be.  I was careful to explain each step before we did it.  That made things go smoother.  I sent her inside while I drilled holes an located hardware.  Then she came back outside and we bolted it into place temporarily. 

That's all I could do until I have the latches from Amazon and a L support for the other end of the box.  The caulk for the shed patch and support would be a quick trip to the hardware store except we have to wait for the sewer guy.  All I could do was put everything away and go inside to surf.

The long wait began.  I surfed and watched videos for hours.  The sewer guy finally showed up about 4.  Things didn't go well.  His truck quit sucking up sewage.  He spent considerable time getting it to do so.  Eventually it did and the tank got emptied.  When he left I flushed the tank with two 15 gallon flushes.  The result was as clean a tank as I ever have.  I have no reservations about dumping the water where the septic used to be.

It was almost 5:30 by the time that was done.  I left the shower tank draining and we went to Woodburn. I got the caulk and braces I needed.  Then we went to the golf course restaurant for dinner.  Afterwards we picked up TP at Wally World.

When we got home I put everything away.  After that it was videos and a short nap for the rest of the evening.
