Day 3205

 I woke up at 7:30 and got up because I couldn't get back to sleep.  I did the pet stuff and had breakfast. After getting the shooting stuff out I just killed time surfing until it was time to shoot at 9:30. 

We started at the high station (6) on the north side of the course.  We shot with Gerry and Garret.  I dropped two targets on that station and 1 on the next.  Then I didn't miss on the next 8 stations.  Unfortunately then we had to go from station 15 to station 1.

I decided to ride on the back of Gerry's rig.  We only go a little way before the tire came off the cart wheel.  I got it back on and started to walk the rest of the way.  The tire came off again a few hundred feet later.  I put it back on again and gave the cart to a course worker to take to the trailer.  then I walked the rest of the way to station 1.

By then I was hot and tired.  I also had to shoot first.  I missed the last bird of the last pair (it wasn't hard).  I then proceeded to miss 1 bird on each of the remaining stations and two on one.  None of them were hard targets.  I was just too tired and hot after the trip to station 1.  I finished with a 92, but I was really disappointed.

When we got back I unloaded everything and we went back to the RC store to exchange the fluids I'd purchased yesterday.  I also got a pinion gear.  We ate lunch at a DQ on the way home.

When we got home i went out to the shed to fix the cart wheel.  It was very hot inside.  I got out a tube of Shoe Goo and spread it on the inside of the tire and on the outside rim.  Hopefully that will hold it.

When that was done I was very hot and tired.   I spent the rest of the day surfing and watching videos.

Dinner was leftover halibut and rice.  It was still very good.

I didn't work on the new car because I was just so tired
