Day 3204

 I woke up a little before 8 and got up to do pet stuff and have breakfast.  After that I got ready to go to the club.  We left for it about 9 because we were scheduled to shoot at 9:30.

We hung around the club for a little while and then walked to our first station.  Of course it was on the opposite side of the course.  We got there in plenty of time though.  Eventually we ended up walking a little farther so that we could start on station 1.

It was hazy today, but not all that hot.  Ellen shot rally well and won her class.  I shot OK, but not well enough to win anything.

When we were done we went back to the trailer and put everything away.  Then we drove to the clubhouse with the dog and Ellen's gun.  CG was having a "fix it" thing.  They said for her to bring her gun back tomorrow.  I bought some 20 ga competition ammo and some 12 ga practice.

After that we went to the post office to pick up my RC car kit and to the grocery for milk, bread, and OJ.  I accidentally got $15/lb off on some fresh halibut.  The person who wrapped it up entered the wrong type of fish.  Then it was home.  The temperature was in the high 90's.  I decided to just surf for a while.

I started to look over the RC car kit.  It turned out that I needed shock oil and two types of diff fluid.  I decided to go to the RC store for it.  When I got there I screwed up.  I left my glasses in the car and didn't have my hearing aids on.  That caused some confusion on what I wanted.  I ended up with the wrong shock oil and one wrong diff fluid.  I'll have to take them back tomorrow.

I ended up doing a little work on the car.  I built the front diff.  I was going to do the motor, but the kit pinon gear is plastic.  I'll have to buy one of those tomorrow, too.  I ended up on Amazon to buy a servo and tires.  I ordered the servo, but passed on the tires for now.

Ellen fixed the halibut.  It was really good.  There's enough left for tomorrow, too.
