Day 2999

 I woke up at 8.  Ellen got up a little before me and fed the animals.  I got up and had breakfast.  After a little surfing I decided to finish installing the electronics on the FCX.

It took me some time to figure out how to position the wires, ESC, and receiver  There isn't a lot of room on the FCX frame.  I finally figured it all out and installed it.  Then I programmed the ESC and set the servo.  It's now ready to go.  I put everything away and went out to the garage to get the stuff to build the Defender shocks.

That's when I ran out of ambition.  I wasn't tired, I just didn't feel like doing anything.  I spent the rest of the morning and early afternoon surfing.  I'm kind of guilty about that because I should have gone out and fixed the hole in the fence.

When Ellen came back from archery we packed up the dog and went to the Italian place for lunch.  Abby disappointed a little because she wouldn't stop trying to interact with a couple of dogs that were there.  Also it was a little cold because we couldn't sit in the sun.

After lunch we went to Circle C.  The first stop was the creek.  There were several other dogs there and Abby had a great time splashing with them.  The dogs eventually left and I threw some sticks for her.  She almost got to swimming, but not quite.  We started walking when she got tired of the water.

We walked around almost all of the fields.  I wanted to keep Abby running in the sunshine to keep her warm rather than walking on the paths.  When we were over on the bunchball fields another dog showed up.  It was a little smaller than Abby and really wanted to run.  They spent quite a while running around and wrestling.  The owner showed up and we talked until the dogs got tired.

We walked back to the car.  I tried to get Abby to run some retrieves, but she really wasn't interested.  She'd covered a lot of ground.  Then we went home.

I surfed a little and then fed everyone at 5.  After that it was leftovers for dinner followed by videos, followed by surfing.
