Day 3230

 I woke up about 8 and played games for a while.  Then it was up for pet stuff and breakfast.

Ellen took Abby to the dog park while I went out to check on the CTS that didn't work yesterday.  I started the truck and the CTS worked perfectly.  WIN.  She took Abby back to the trailer and we left for Home Depot.

I needed something to brace the shower item holder that had fallen off the shower wall.  We found a plumbing fixture for $.30 that would fit the bill.  We also stopped at Wally World to get some water for the dog.  We decided to go to Best Buy across the street just because we didn't have anything else to do.

It was 10:30 and Best Buy didn't open until 11.  We went down the street to Dutch Brother's and got drinks.  By the time we got back Best Buy had opened.  We walked around the store and didn't find anything we really wanted until I looked at watches.  My watch's display is getting dim.  The current models don't have rotating bezels.  However the sales guy showed me an earlier one that did.  It was marked down because it was old, so I bought it.

When we got home we took Abby for a walk to the other RV park down the road.  It's a nice park, but doesn't seem to be any nicer than this one.  They charge extra for dogs, so that's puts them lower in desirability.  Abby used their dog par and then we went home.

Back at the trailer I put the brace on the shower holder.  Then I started to transfer to the new watch.  That involved some slow software updates.  Apparently Verizon was sucking today.  It turns out that I'll need a new watchband, so I ordered on to be delivered in Las Vegas.  Then I tried to change the watch face.  That's when the trouble started.

The phone app is used to transfer watch faces to the watch.  It refused to do so because it said there was an error logging on to my Samsung account.  I reset the password twice, and it still wouldn't work.  After much frustration I contacted Samsung support.  That's a painfully slow chat app.  Eventually they told me to reset the phone and clear its cache.  That's a long involved process.  I said thanks.  I decided to delete and reinstall the Samsung phone app instead.  That fixed the problem.

I finally had my new watch with the watch face I wanted.  It's pretty nice.  By then the temperature was in the mid 90's.  We hid out surfing and watching videos for the rest of the day.

Ellen fixed BLT's for dinner.  Afterwards we took Abby for a walk around the park.  I was still above 80, but with no sun and a breeze it felt nice.

The rest of the evening was videos.  We don't have to get ready until tomorrow.  Checkin time in Las Vegas is 1, and we're an hour ahead of them.
