All I ever wish for is to be able to make a living playing music. After all these years I'm still hoping .....one day...maybe one day

We had a storm go through last week. Snow, high winds, some melting, then it turned to ice from the wind. Power went out for 6 hours. I'm lucky in that I have a fireplace and gas hot water heater. I have a feeling the power goes out here a lot, so I'm going to get a propane powered generator. The storm that went through really wasn't bad at all ... not a good sign.

I feel for you Jon... I hope you are better now.

We had rain pretty much all day yesterday and thunder before midnight. It is still gloomy, cold, and misty. The wind is supossed to start this afternoon but not yet. My grand daughter is travelling from west Ohio to Indianapolis today. The forcast there is heavy snow and wind. Last I heard this morning my son-in-law was stuck on the side of the road somewhere in KY on his way to a hunting trip...

I am at HOME... and I wish my grand daughter was here too.

Get well Jon. it does get better. I lost around over 2 stones in 48 hours but it is coming back (and too fast at that, lol).

Just remember to budget for the transfer switch as well!  When I bought my last house, it was on a hill that got 80+ mph winds and the wiring used to be above ground so most of the houses on the ridge had generators.  Mine was supposed to come with a nice 15kW Onan/Cummings natural gas generator, but it was stolen by the sellers the day before I received the keys.  It would have cost too much to go after them into another state so I had to eat the loss, but they left me the transfer switch in the garage.  It was a good-sized thing with the batteries (to keep the juice flowing while the generator powers up) and everything.  Found out the switch box alone was almost $1,700.
