[I still care]

My most important hurricane supply, (and I never see this mentioned) is supplies for the barbeque.

If you lose power, and have an electric stove, its one of the few ways to cook what you might otherwise lose in your freezer.

You are correct.

When we were facing Isabel last year we made sure the propane tanks for the grilled were filled and that we had charcoal as well. I was expecting the power to go out first - and wanted to make sure we were able to do some cooking because we have an electric stove.

We never lost our power - but we were prepared!!!

Changed the propane tank on the bbq just over a week ago. Fortunately, have a small solar power system here. Can keep the laptop computer, cell phone, small television, and fan running.

Probably my most valuable hurricane supply is the big thermos to keep hot coffee for the duration of the storm. That, and an old fashioned hand crank coffee bean grinder.
