Day 2808

 I woke up about 8 and played games for an hour.  Then I got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that it was outside.

I drained the tanks and went to the shed.  I soldered the connector I'd gotten to the battery charger lead for Hooch.  Then I wrapped up both the car and the battery charger.  I put them in the trunk of the car for Monday.  

Then I got to work on the teeter totter.  I glued the last pieces to the rails.  I also drilled the mounting holes for the tower.  That was all I could do right then, so I started to work on the wire bridge.  I found wood for the base and uprights.  I cut them out and then sanded the pieces.  By then it was lunch time.

We left for lunch.  First we stopped at Brooks for a couple of hardware pieces for the wire bridge.  Then we stopped at the breakfast place by Harbor Freight.  It was very good.  We stopped at Harbor Freight and got the little knives Hooch wanted.  I got some, too.  The last stop was Roth's.  We mainly bought things that they had on sale.

It was hot when we got home.  I surfed and Ellen watched chick flicks.  She fixed stir fry for dinner.

After dinner it was more surfing until 8.  Then I went back to the shed to work on the teeter totter.  I glued the rails together.  I also cut grooves in the wire bridge uprights for the cables.  I'd just finished that when I realized I'd glued the rails wrong.  I barely got them apart.  I'll try again tomorrow.
