Day 2980

 I woke up about 8, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After a little surfing I got out the Jeep.

I connected the phone app to the ESC and updated it's firmware.  That was a little scary because the app crashed at the end of the update.  Everything was fine though.  Then I calibrated the ESC.  It was almost in calibration to begin with.

With that done I did some fine tuning of the front steering.  The end points needed some adjustment and so did the trim.  The back steering was fine.  Finally I did some runs through the obstacle course.  The Jeep went through it with no problems at all.

Ellen has been getting things set up for meeting with Grant on his analysis software.  She has almost everything done except for one investment.  It's a big one though.  Apparently Gerry needs to turn something on.

I also left another message at Perazzi.  By then it was 1.  We went to Torchy's for lunch.  After that we went to the coffee shop for coffee and dessert.  Every time we look at the investment accounts we start feeling rich.  Ellen had a $5 cookie.

When we got back home I took the FMS cab out to the garage.  Its lights are going to need a rebuild when the new electronics come.  I completely redid the wiring harness.  I made it much shorter and replaced most of the heavy wire that made it so hard to attach the cab.  The process took at least three hours.  I was really please when it worked when I tested it.  It was after 6 when I finished.  I'll clean up tomorrow.

Just after I finished the test Perazzi called.  The guy claimed that he had the barrel in hand and would ship it out tomorrow.  I may have misunderstood him last week when he said "the barrel was finished".  The gunsmith may not share the same facility as the office.  Oh well.  I've been obsessing over this for the last few days.  I'm a lot calmer now, but I'll worry until I have the barrel in my hands.

Ellen fixed chicken and rice for dinner.  After dinner it was videos.
