We have two four wheel drive vehicles and two generators: the main generator is an automatic whole house Generac and we have a backup 2000va Honda portable. The liquor cabinet has been well stocked for decades...with all sorts of stuff that I don't drink. 🙏

And remember Boonie, I seek out places like this....

Would love to have a Generac whole home gennie. I just have a 6500 peak/ 5000W generator I've had for probably 20 years. If the darn hurricanes would stop sapping my bank account for a few years.....
 
I guess I’m lucky. In six years, my power has been down for about five seconds. I had to reboot a few computers and reset the clocks on my kitchen stove, but that’s about it.

In Virginia, where it seems like they’d have a more robust setup that in these here rural parts, it seems like I’d lose power for three days every time I came back from a fishing trip, spoiling a hundred pounds of salmon and halibut. Yeah, plenty ticked (hopefully not censored) off.

That's the reason we got the Generac; we lost about $600 worth of food while we were away. Also, these generators are actually power outage prevention devices...since we installed it a few years ago, the only significant outage was 2-1/2 hours once in the middle of the night. It's strange how crap more often happens to the unprepared.

looks like a local rest stop. But not this year yet

A pic of one of our trips to Big Sky, which I believe is sort of in your neck of the woods, inspector.

Now the folks in the Big Sky ivory tower charge a big fee over and above the ski pass cost to ride that aerial tram.

I’m always on the lookout for bargains, this week I got a Yamaha Avr RX-A870 for £80, i’ll sell my Denon AVR-X2600 for about £300 on ebay, the Yamaha is older but hardly had any use as it was in a loft for over 2 years, it has two things the Denon doesn’t, DSD direct and DAB+ radio, it took me a couple of days to get everything how I wanted but am a happy chappy now, until the next bargain comes along 🤪

Okay gang. I’m at the local Walmart….I was wrong, it’s $298!!
I heard on another site that Walmart has purchased Visio with the intention of forcing ads onto the screens.

Not sure if it’s one of those “fake news” bits, but it’s not something I would put past them.
 
Got our first dusting of snow yesterday. It melted on the pavement but not on the lawns and fields.

I spent most of the day tearing my rack apart. Got to have it functional for the BSU game at 6 tonight.
