Day 3670

 I woke up at 7, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  It was a cool morning, so after breakfast we took Abby to Circle C.

Abby hadn't been to the park in several days.  She had a great time.  The weather was cool enough that she could go full speed for most of the time that we were there.  We walked the full route.  She was a little tired when we were done.  She was great today, always checking in and obeying.

The mower place called while we were driving.  The mower is ready.  I'll pick it up tomorrow.  We stopped at the doctor's office so I could get another copy of the exercise routine.  We also stopped at HEB for milk and a couple of other things.

The next stop was the post office.  A package from China was there.  We stopped briefly at the pet store to see if the cat food was in stock.  It was and we bought 2 bags.  Abby got a treat.  The last stop was Costco for rolls.

When we got home it was leftovers for lunch.  Then I took the Slash shocks out to the garage.  I'd decided that the plungers should have holes to allow the oil to move.  I did one as an experiment.  It worked great, so I did the other three.  The process took a lot of time.  I had to disassemble each shock, drill the hole, refill the shock and bleed it.  The result was four well performing shocks.  I just wish I hadn't spent so much frustrating work on them yesterday.

I took the shocks back to the house and started working on the rear end assembly for the Slash.  It went together with no problems.  Unfortunately several of the hop up parts that I'd purchased won't work on this version of the Slash.  The suspension isn't standard and many of the parts I'd bought were suspension parts.  Crap.

It was dinner time when I got done with the rear end.  I had something frozen.  After dinner I did a few small chores.  Then I switched to videos and a nap.  When I woke up I continued with the videos until bed time. 

The new pump seems to be working well.
