I had a new gas meter installed in January. When we get back we're getting a 17kw automatic gen. The portable works fine but it doesn't start itself at 3 AM or refuel itself. We lose power too often and for too long a stretch. We are the very last house on the last transformer on the power line. When we lose power we're a low priority, time for an upgrade.

I used my portable generator last night til bedtime ,it only powers certain outlets for some reason and some lights but better than nothing .When we went to bed I could not sleep as it was too quiet .I would love to have one like you are planning ,maybe someday .

My son's power came back on a few hours later. He went to work as usual this morning. Said the 60 mile drive wasn't any problem...

I've got more ice in my freezer than what is in this county. And I live on the extreme northern side of it.
But of course, NO school today. :confused:

All our voting is now mailed to us and we drop them off a drop sites or mail them back in. No more going to schools or public places to vote like we use to do. Been that way for 15 years.

Sunny and about 60 all week. Need to get the Chevelle back out. Tried to mow yesterday but I guess the lawn mower had other idea's. Won't start. Ran like 3 weeks ago???????

We still have ice all over the trees here ,and lots of broken limbs .Canton got nothing and thats only 6 miles away .Crews are out in force trying to get broken trees out of the roadways ,most power is back on .

Beautiful and sunny until noon, then dark skies and rain ever since. :(

I like it.

That's spot on!
