Day 3718

 I woke up at 6:30 and didn't even try to go back to sleep.  I knew that I wouldn't.  I played games and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After eating it was surfing.

I really wanted to get something accomplished, so I decided that today was the day I'd start working on the gravel.  There's a lot of thin/bare spots that need to be filled in.  I started by filling the cart tires with air.  Then I started moving gravel and filling the spots starting where we park the car.  I did 7, maybe 8, carts before I got too tired to continue.  It was beginning to get warm also. 

I'm getting old.  I used to do between 10 and 20 carts before I quit.  Of course that was 10 years ago.  I did manage to fill in all the holes to up above the yard art.  I plan on finishing the rest tomorrow.  I may actually have a little gravel left over.

 It was a little before lunch when I went back inside.  I still felt like doing something so I finished up the work on the TRX4.  All I had to do was set the steering limits and the trim.  It didn't take very long at all.  The TRX4 is really easy to work on. 

 I had lunch.  There was a package at the post office.   Abby had been bugging me continually about a run and we needed some salt for the softener.  We put her in the car and went to Lowe's.  It was a short stop.  There was a cart by the door.  We went inside and the salt was just there.  We loaded the cart and went 20 feet to an open cash register, paid, and left.

The next stop was the post office.  There were two packages instead of one.  Yeah.  Then it was off to Circle C.  It was 83 degrees.  I was still tired so we just walked around the various squirrel towns.  Abby still managed to get in a good run.

When we got home I felt like shopping.  I ordered some more protein drinks and Ellen's pants from Amazon.  I also looked for things to dress up the TRX4.  Aliexpress has ruined me for buying that stuff on Amazon.  It's just so much cheaper at Aliexpress.  I had to log on there anyway to mark all the things in the packages as received.

That got me looking at stuff at Aliexpress.  I ended up making a small order.

The Chinese stuff included the bearing hexes I'd been waiting for.  I went out to the garage and installed the second set of tires on the trailer.  The tires work fine.  I also put the Kraton on the trailer.  It barely compresses the springs.  I'll decide if I'll flip the axles later.

By then it was dinner time.  I went back inside and surfed while Ellen fixed fish for dinner.  She baked it and it was good. 

After dinner I surfed and then tried to watch a movie.  I only made it about 1/3 through before I went back to surfing for the rest of the evening.
