I woke up about 8, played games for a while, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast. The day was going to be taken up by waiting for the barrel, so I spent the morning making up new crawler obstacle designs.
I made a few designs myself and copied a couple from the web. I made a materials list for Ellen to stop at Home Depot for after the club.
FedEx said that delivery would occur between 11:40 and 3:30. I parked in the cul-de-sac about 11:20. It was a nice sunny day, low 70's. I spent most of the day playing computer games on the iPad. I got some packages from Amazon a little after noon. The FedEx guy showed up at 3:20.
Lee came buy to see me while I was waiting. We had a good talk. We made a play date for the dogs tomorrow afternoon.
Ellen brought Abby out to the cul-de-sac and threw the bumper for her. Abby did great, always paying attention to Ellen even though Abby wasn't wearing the collar.
The barrel looks really good. It cost a little less than $400 to repair. I won't be able to shoot it until next week though. I'm getting really weak. The gun feels very heavy.
I put the gun away while Ellen left for the club. Then I took the garbage out with Abby, again no collar. She paid attention to where I was going and led the way. On the way back she went off into the woods. When I called her back it took several calls before she figured out where I was. When she did she came running.
Some parts for the Traaxas had come. I spent some enjoyable time installing the brass links. I'm waiting on tomorrow's parts before installing the bearings. Otherwise I'll just be redoing some of the work.
After that the rest of the evening was videos. Ellen brought me a calzone for dinner. It's big enoough for three meals.
