Day 2786

 I woke up about 7.  I'd been up until 1 last night, so I went back to sleep until 8.  Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast.

After breakfast I surfed and did a few minor things like take out the garbage.  At ten we took Abby to the club to pick up a couple of packages.  When we got home I took her over to do some retrieves  She only did a few before she lost interest.

By then it was time to go to McMinnville for the farmer's market.  We had to take a detour to avoid a big backup due to the work on the bridge.  That turned out OK, because we stopped at a Dutch Bros.  The not so good thing was that Abby barfed up her entire breakfast.  It was quite a mess.  Fortunately we had paper towels and cleaning solution in the car.  I cleaned it up while we were waiting in line.

There wasn't really anything new at the market.  We looked at everything and bought strawberries and some pastries.  We didn't eat there because we had passed an old time burger joint on the way in.  It had plenty of outdoor seating.

The burger place was good and not too expensive.  While we were eating some people showed up with a huge GSP and a larger wirehair.  Both were much larger than Lucy was.  I told Abby she was not allowed to get that large.

On the way back we stopped at Hopewell.  It's really just a couple of closed buildings and a store that sells local arts and crafts.  Ellen bought soap and a locally made candy bar.  I got a lemonade.  The candy bar was small and cost $8.  It was REALLY good though.  

It was over 90 when we got home.  I went out to the garage to solder connectors on the battery and ESC leads for the RC car.  It was hot.  The job took longer than it should have.  I was going to mod the heat sink too, but I didn't have any cutting wheels for the Dremel.  I'll have to get some.

Ellen fixed shrimp and tator tots for dinner.  After dinner was videos.
