    Must be nice. I've got three - a 2000 watt inverter generator that runs most everything I care about, a 5500 watt gas hog to run the well pump for long outages, and a piece of chit harbor freight 2 stroke I paid $99 for in case all else fails.

    I don't mind power outages in the winter. It's easy to keep food cold and the house warm. Outages in the summer suck.....

    The NWS is predicting 18 - 24 (or more) inches in this area. All the news weather outlets around here are having a field day with this one, saying things like this may be one of the top 5 worse storms to hit New England. Same thing they said about a storm in 2013 (that really did end up being one of the top 5!)

    OMG! Hope you have a way to dig yourself out. SmokeyTheBear and DaveGunter are also in this same blue belt. But what will be the mess is Boston. 16-22 in. Those city folks will get so snarled up they will be until spring to dig their way out.

    Well power came back on earlier and I was cleaning up the garage and did a bag count and I'm at 81 for the season. I'm having surgery at the end of the week and decided to do a full clean since it is so close to a ton burnt and I'll be down and out for a week. This time I did it without pulling my stove and taking outside and using the compressor. I pulled everything apart and had the leaf blower running the whole time sucking everything out. I still think the stove gets cleaner with the compressor but this way wasn't too bad. Stove is back up and running!

    My stove has an appliance adapter that basically has a "quick disconnect" and I seal it with silicone tape. Silicone tape comes off easily.

    I have foil tape and silicone on my "permanent" connections and silicone tape on the adapter where I take it apart to pull the stove. This is the leftover black tape I had but I did buy two rolls of the one I posted.

    Well had a party Saturday had no clue of the 2 plus feet coming until yesterday am. Fired up Genny brought around back to connect to gentran, did the gas run. Already shopped Friday. Booze not a problem, gonna probably shut store down and take a few hundred bottles home with me. My town usually gets 6-8 inches more than surrounding. Got 35 inches in 2013 so we shall see...... .:faint:
