This was from last weeks snowmageddon, took the old 7.3 pickup and 661 saw and tried to help cut a path for emergency vehicles, power trucks, people to go get fuel for generators during recovery from the storm.
It’s one thing to clear the road, it’s quite another when there are a bunch of trees down hanging only on power lines (all our service is above ground).Not a safe place to be.
We got power back after 4.5 days. The realization of relying on a gas fueled generator for multiple days is a terrible idea when 1- you can’t get out, 2- the stations have no power, 3- the stations run out of fuel.
Anyway I need to come up with another plan. Wish we had natural gas, a medium sized propane tank like 250 gallon is expensive, an eyesore and propane’s a fortune. IDK??? After 18 years of warming our old home with firewood and pellets, the Warden said no wood of any sort for fuel on our new home.
It was like this in every direction,
