I woke up at 8 and got up to pick up an Amazon delivery. Then I did the usual get up stuff, pet stuff, and had breakfast. It was going to be hot so the next item was walk the property with Abby.
It was pleasant went we started, but it got progressively warmer. Abby had a good run though and I didn't get hot. When I was done I went to the garage. I cleaned the bench and the got out the pole trimmer. I used it to significantly cut back the tree at the end of the driveway. I didn't want it brushing the trailer when we left. I got most of the branches with the trimmer, but I had to get out the pole chainsaw for three or four of them. It will be a long time before it needs trimming again.
By the time I was done it was hot. So was I (also tired and sweaty). I went back into the house and surfed. The car from Amain had come, along with a coupon. I shopped for a while, but didn't see anything I wanted. I ate lunch and continued surfing.
Audi sent me a text. They need to replace a part. It should be here late next week. They are still tracing another failure. We didn't hear from Malone's.
Eventually I decided to work on RC stuff. I took a hex out to the garage and tried to expand it enough to fit on the mini-Kraton. Eventually I measured the car's axle shaft. It's 5.47 mm. It's supposed to be 5mm. There's no way I'll be able to find hexes that fit it. I may try drilling some out.
I opened the car from Amain (a Bronco). I got out the bearings and started installing them. I got the front and rear axles and diffs done. That leaves the gearbox. By then it was pet feeding time and I didn't want to do any more. I watched videos until dinner.
Ellen fixed beef and rice for dinner. After dinner I watched more videos and finished with a little more surfing.
