No not that high. I’d know by now because I have too many friends on the BPD

Here is a nice little candle package for safe lighting and warmth, creative people can even figure out how to melt ice on it, these are 9-hour candles.

News say she was a nurse. Unsure if she was coming back from work, etc.

Much appreciated and goes on the Amazon list.

Friday’s outage was a reminder about short term supplies.

When the power came back, I topped off a couple of Jerry can of ethanol free for the portable generator and filled up the tank. I had a long day before and dropped to a quarter.

Again thank you.

When death is within hours. Help is days away. Grew up in the Midwest during the 70’s. No cell phones, but had a CB radio. From Nov to March. Always had a survival pack and extra clothes and boots. Even a camping propane heater these last 15 years. Used to be a big candle and a coffee can back in the day.
Have camped out in a tent in below zero and demonstrated how to do it safely.

With your sleeping bag and blankets, you are looking good, if you care to splurge I just received these tonight, they are a nice luxury when using an underrated sleeping bag.

Mine are dated good until 8/2026 and cost $7.00 as posted.

She was headed home after work. Should of stayed at work or not gone in. No one should have been allowed on the roads. Should have shut down the highways. I remember years ago when I lived in Oklahoma and they had a snow storm (nothing compared to northern states, but a little snow to them when not use to it, caused havoc) they shut down the highway. I was born and raised in Ohio and I was like what, this is nothing I was use to driving in. Yet Buffalo NY is known for blizzards and they don’t shut down highway before the storm. Insane. Meanwhile Biden and Jill in St. Croix living it up while people freeze to death in USA

I was standing outside the polls in Nov. in NH. There was also a Democrat sign holder.

He told me he retired, and was moving to a house he just bought in Buffalo. I asked him why?

He said houses were cheap there. I told him there is a reason for that. I guess he knows one of the reasons now.

These are nice to throw in a sleeping bag, even an hour before getting into it, also if one is sleeping and getting cold, one can be activated in the bag without really waking up.
