Englewood, FL (And the slugfest continues)

I went to the library at 12, was back home by 1PM and began reading one of the books I had picked up and finished it at 8PM.  So that pretty much covers what I did all day.

 

Monte was a little more productive.  He rotated the switches on our new landing gear.  The legs are independent each having their own switch.  The way they were originally wired up was confusing-when pressing up, the legs extended and when pressing down on the switch the legs retracted. 

 

Monte admits he should have taken the fuse out prior to working on the switches because he ended up blowing the fuse.  So replacing the fuse became his next project.

 

 

 

He also created a pulley system for hoisting up our grey boy when storing it on the rear ladder.

 

 

I guess we won't know how well it works until he is ready to use it when we pack up to leave.

In the late afternoon, Monte coaxed Annie out to give her a much needed brushing. 

She liked it at first but then she hissed her warning that she wanted him to stop.
