I've been out for 11 days. I luckily had propane to cook and heat
water.
What water we could get with the power out. As luck has it, it runs
downhill.

We loose power on a monthly basis for several hours at a time.

It just amuses the hell out of me that what some call 'survivalism' us
Upstate New Yorkers call 'an average day'.

We Upstaters get a kick out of watching major cities like DC come to a

brush that off the car g.
