Day 3714

 I woke up at 6:30 and didn't even try to go back to sleep.  It was clear that I wouldn't be successful.  I played games for a while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  The computer is still working - at least until is starts flaking out.

When breakfast was done I did a little online shopping at Hobby Town.  I had a $20 off $100 coupon and we needed some paint for the Corvair.  I figured I could find something to make up the difference.  We loaded up the dog and left.

Our first stop was the Japanese store on the other side of tow.  Unfortunately it didn't carry the BBQ  was looking for.  I did get some great Mango drink.  Then it was one to Hobby Town.

I've always been there during the week.  It's VERY busy on Saturday.  They set up a course in the parking lot.  People run their cars, break them, and bring them in for parts/repair.  They even have a crawler course outside that they put up.  We got the paint and I bought a 1/64 (Hot Wheels) sized car. 

We went to the fish place across the parking lot.  They let the dog on the patio.  It was a little cold and windy, but comfortable in the sheltered part of the patio.  Abby was a great dog.  There were several other dogs including two a couple of tables away.  They were the untrained yappy type that kept barking at her.  She ignored them when I told her to.  After lunch she got some extra treats.

We stopped at the post office on the way home.  USPS said that a package had made it there.  Maybe it had, but it wasn't in the box. 

The last stop was Circle C.  Abby deserved a good run and she got it.  When we got home I put the car (a Mustang) on the charger and went out to the garage.  I spent over an hour putting hinges on the sides.  Most of the time was making sure that the way I was installing them would work.  Once again I was having a lot of trouble until I figured out a way to camp them before I marked the holes.

When I went back inside the computer was acting up.  I closed it and used the Surface to surf whie Ellen watched a chick flick.  

Dinner was leftover chicken.  After dinner I watched videos.  I gave the ustang a little run.  It's a kick.  The animals want to chase it around because it's so small.  It's tires are really hard though, so it has a lot of power but is hard to control.

Tomorrow I'm hoping to get the tie downs mounted and the front of the frame done.  Who knows?
