And what did we buy today?

A care package for the Corolla; front oem struts, alternator brushes, some new rubber pedal covers, brake pads.
Tried to get the local dealer to match the price of another local dealer, they didn’t want to. I then found everything at an out of state dealer for even less, no tax, and free shipping too.
 
HP Reverb G2 VR goggles. At least they arrived today. Too bad they were DOA. :( Some defect in the right lens/panel. I had a taste a couple weeks ago with another brand and VR raises the bar significantly with flight simming. Yeah, I've gone back down the simming rabbit hole with the release of FS2020 last year. It's a blast.
 
tubes :D

I went tot he Greeneville TN Ham Fest and paid $5 to get in.

There was a big box of tubes on one table with a sign that said take one or two but don't be a pig.

So I dug through it and picked out a 6SL7 and a 6SN7, both were not in boxes. Got home and tested them and they both look good.
 
Not today’s purchase but I figured I’d wait until I finished it for the pic because the stack of lumber I bought a few days ago wasn’t very appealing.....but here is the grape arbor that came from it, along with four ‘southern jewel’ muscadine vines.
