I may not be doing it but that doesn't mean I am missing it.

The last winter I spent in DC my spa froze, the pipes in my garage
froze and we damned near froze because the power was out for almost a
week. Generators were not really all that available in those days
either. It certainly wasn't something you could run down to Hechingers
and buy.

Is Hechingers still around? I used to go there often when we were
stationed in Annapolis. That would have been back in '76 til '77.
