Sandy
 

Hope any of you in the path of Sandy don't get slammed. God Bless all of you.

We're ready and hoping for the best. Clean up the rain gutters and put the winter covers on the basement windows. Have 27 gallon of gas for the generator, 10 gallons of water in containers and luckily our cooking is with gas.

I am right in the projected path of Sandy here in CT. We have 20 gallons of gas for the generator and for the cubs (PTO generator) as well as garbage pails full of water for toilet flushing as well as a couple cases of drinking water. We have 150 lbs of propane for the grill and we have battened down the hatches so to speak, we are ready! Bring it on Sandy :beerchug: :BB&YS:

And Thanks Sam for thinking of us!

Last year after I sold my place in CT you guys got hammered with the snow storm. The new owners of my place lost power for over a week. I suggested to them that they should get a generator like I had when I lived there. I get an e-mail today from them asking what I think they should do DUH it's a bit late now. here's your sign. :bash2:

Anyway hope it works out for you and yours.

Ahh Yes the infamous storm of 2010 I believe. We lost power for 9 days, but it was no big deal, we cooked on the grill and used our generator. Actually it was a blessing in disguise, because all of our neighbors and us got together and made it through it together. We are always the last to be serviced, the last to have snow removed, the last to have power lines repaired because we live in a dirt road private association. Then not too long after that, last fall we were hit with a hurricane which knocked us out for about 13 days... It never ends. Thank go for my cub 104 during that large snow storm, that thing didn't stop for 3 days straight pushing snow and hauling wood. Was a good test for the old girl, now I have 3 of them so they can all share the responsibility. :biggrin2: And yes, the new owners of your house should have already begun preparing for the storm.... And I swear the weather men get paid more to say words like "catastrophic" and "major" all it does is put people in panic mode...

Well, now my long talk is over. Wish us all luck!

I don't miss the power utility in CT CL&P or as I used to call them Cheat, Loot & Plunder. :beerchug:

Haha, We call them Candle Light and Power!

Good luck and I hope Sandy doesn't do to much damage.:Pray:

Thanks Duke, My college just canceled Classes for Monday and Tuesday, so It looks like I have a nice long break! Haha

Good luck, guys! We're getting some wind from Sandy.
