Day 3538

 I woke up a little after 7 and got up to take Abby for a walk.  I loaded the wash supplies into the car and told Ellen that she could leave without me or wait until I got back.  I could see that traffic was stopped on I5 while we were walking towards it.  The was a crash almost even with the NW corner of the course.  By the time we got there it was cleaned up enough that traffic was running at rubbernecker speed.

Ellen was still at the trailer when we got back.  She decided to leave rather than wait for me to have breakfast.  I ate and surfed for a while.  I decided to work on the rally car I got out the stuff I needed to do the tires and shocks.  I started on the shocks because I needed to get some foam for the tires.

Ellen came home while I was working on the shocks.  I helped put everything away and then went back to the shocks until I reached a stopping point.  I had a lot of problems with the C clips and some problem with unclear Tamiya instructions.  I stopped at the add oil point. 

We needed cat food for tomorrow.  Ellen didn't want to go, so I took Abby to get it and some tire foams.  I got the foams at the RC store.  After the pet store I got lunch at the Dairy Queen.  Abby got a hamburger from the pet store.

When we got home I went back to finish the shocks.  I also cut foams for the tires.  I finished just in time to see SpaceX do its first entirely successful launch.  It was great to see.  After that it was videos until after dinner (clam chowder).

Eventually I quit videos and glued the tires.  By then it was time for bed.
