Day 3495

 I woke up a little after 7, fed the pets, and went back to bed to play games.  Eventually I got up for breakfast.  After that I took Abby for her walk.

Dave has mowed parts of the course that he's never mowed before.  He's flattened a lot of the high gress that Abby lies to run in.  She had fun anyway though. 

When we got back I got out the 6x6.  I cut out the body.  I mounted the tires, but didn't glue them.  The tires are squishy soft and need foams.  I ordered some on Amazon.  By the it was lunch time.  We decided to go to Elmer's.  It was pricey, but very good.  I brought home half my meal.

We stopped at the post office.  There were three packages - a water filter, the servos for the 6x6, and the receiver and body for the micro-b.  When we got home I cut out the micro-b body.

The receiver came with NO instructions.  Also, the pins aren't soldered to the board.  I might have to get a tip for my soldering iron to do that.  I did find instructions, but they are minimal.

After that I went outside.  It was hot, but bearable (mid 80's).  I replaced the water filter.  Then I got out a hose and sprayer and washed the leftover salt into the ground.  I picked up what was left with my hands and hauled it away.  The two places that had salt are almost completely clean now.

I was hot and tired when I got done, so I watched videos when I got back inside.  That became a short nap.  

Ellen fixed hot dogs for dinner.  After dinner was half and half videos and surfing.
