Pellet heads!! What's up today?

Broncos Hoping for no theatrics from Mr. Newton and great defense and great last game ( perhaps ) from Peyton.

 

With so many cameras: 62 you would think instant replay would be able to give you a 360 degree look at every questionable play. Perhaps we will see the levitating coin flip again.

 

Met my bro Will up at HD this morning...we both oinked up some more pellets......pics for proof....and ttdberg , don't get any ideas of sending that buzzard here!!!

 

And then I stopped at Lowe's ,because they sent me a $10 off if you spend $ 50 coupon and grabbed 10 more bags total haul today 1/2 ton

 

I'll be headin' over to the SB party in a little bit. It'll be good to see some old friends, drink a lot of smoothies, play some cards, eat, and enjoy the game w/o having to bite nails over who wins. But, I would like Payton to go out a winner. The other team & QB are just too cocky.

 

Another good score! Wives might be moody today but at least the cheap pellets put a bit of a smile on our faces

 

They'll get over it ,and if they don't meh and I'm over it

 

Not what your under Roos want to see

 

After the fumes settle we will have a winner, Payton or Mr. Cocky

 

We lost power around 2:00pm Friday. The snow was so wet and heavy it did a job on the trees throughout eastern CT. Went to get the generator ready and found it was toast. Not good. Pulled out the P43 and installed one of the old wood stoves in it's place. Stopped by my dad's place yesterday afternoon and picked up his generator, brought it home, tried to get the P68 up and running but it was not a pretty scene. Every moving part in the stove sounded like it was screaming in pain when running on the generator, so that was short lived. I was afraid it was going to fry, so backed out of that plan about 2 mins in. At least we were able to power the refrigerators and a couple lights. Anyway, the wood stove was enough to get us through until 5:00am this morning when the power finally came back. Bad timing for this outage, Friday night was 12 degrees and Saturday night was 17 degrees. We were lucky enough to have the wood stove option, but I know not everyone was. Tell you what, burning the wood stove again has given me renewed appreciation for the pellet stoves. I had forgotten exactly how much attention and frequent feeding that thing needs! Not going to get caught like this again, I ordered one of those Champion 3100W inverter generators so next time we will be more prepared, and hopefully can run the pellet stove(s) with it.

 

An inverter genny is the next thing on my list

 

Well I'll let you know how this one does. Should be arriving on Wed and I'm going to be like a kid in a Candy store when it does. I will pull the wood stove back out, put the P43 back in, and run it with the new genny for the break-in period. Can't wait, actually.

Oh and something else funny that happened when running on the generator last night. We have an electric hot water kettle, so I figured I would make a cup of tea. When I turned that thing on, you should have heard the hurtin it put on the generator! I guess anything with a heating coil in it will do that, but it was amazing to hear the stress it caused!

 

Look forward to hearing what you think Bud

 

You were load banking the Genny with the kettle! Lol

 

I'm telling you I thought that thing was going to roll over and croak, but it made it through and tt got his hot cup of tea in the end!

 

Should'a just went for a Beer
