Mother's Day

Today you didn't actually work on the project. You woke up and made a card for mother's day, and helped to make crepes. Breakfast was very good and mom seemed to enjoy it.

Then you mowed the lawn. This took a long time as it was the first use of the tractor this year. So the battery was dead, the bagger didn't all fit together correctly on the first try, and a few other things went wrong. All in all, the lawn got mowed and looks pretty good.

You then went driving with your sister and father as she is taking her driver's test this week and wanted some tips on what they look for and where in Brunswick they take you.

While driving you got a little bit of project work done by talking to your father. You talked about how best to make brushes for energy transfer on the float. It turns out that it is better to use a brush with a metal strip as the "spring" instead of using one of the actual spring based brushes.

Finally you had diner from Thai Garden and looked at a little physics in preparation for tomorrow's test.
