Thanks. It’s been a fantastic winter so far but I had this nagging feeling that we were going to see one last try before the end of the month.
We’ll be fine. This is going to be worse than usual because of the icing and all, but otherwise, it’s not unexpected. We are all ready for it with all the food we need, a generator and plenty of gas, and propane to feed it as well, and a fantastic wood stove to boot.
One Thanksgiving some years back we visited my son and got in just as it was starting on Tuesday afternoon. We stayed the week and the power still wasn’t on when we left Sat morning. And whenever we went outside, all we could hear around us was generators running. People are so ready for it here. He had a coal stove at the time so we kept plenty warm. Cooked the Thanksgiving turkey out on the grill. It was VERY good.
When you look at homes for sale around here, many of them proudly include a picture of their generator panel for use when the power goes out. It’s very common to see that.
The most frustrating thing is losing the internet and FR withdrawal.
Nice to hear - I should have read further down the thread. Glad you and your loved ones will be safe.
We’re addicted!
