Day 2912

 I woke up at 7, turned over and went to sleep until 8:30.  Then I surfed a while before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that I went outside to deal with the Ranger.  I figured I might as well do it early or I'd just worry about it all day.

I unplugged the Ranger and started it up.  It started fine, but ran a bit rough.  Wile it was warming up I noticed that a tree branch was partially clogging the ditch by the carport.  It's important that that drains, so I cut the branch.  Then I took the Ranger on a 2 mile trip around the neighborhood.  By the time I got back it was running really well.

I parked the Ranger by the well house, disconnected the battery, and put the cover back on.  Then I went to the garage to work on the RC car lighting.

I started with the Chevy.  It was relatively easy to attach them with the supplied screws.  The new lights look really nice.  Then I got to work on the rear lights for the EB48.  I fabricated a light mount from an old piece of scrap metal that was in one of the RC car boxes.  It took a little hole drilling and metal cutting.  The result looks pretty good when I got done.

I started to connect up the EB48 lights.  I got the back lights connected.  The fronts are harder to deal with.  I just got tired of working on it and went inside.  It will be there tomorrow.  I ate lunch and then fell down a deep rabbit hole.

I started looking for Black Friday RC deals.  A main had a truck I liked.  I decided to buy it and list the needed equipment (motor, ESC, etc) on a Christmas list.  That burned a lot of time as I looked for additional parts and different vendors.  I did get $30 off the order using my credit and a coupon.

By then it was dinner time.  Ellen fixed baked potatoes.  After dinner I watched videos.  I ended up looking at videos that listed things I might want to buy.
