Won't matter how much oil we have if we run out of water, will it?

Quote of the day. "We won't have oil tomorrow, if we don't go after it
today".

Got enough gas to run the genny for several days?
I hope you guys in the northeast are taking this event seriously.

Got enough gas to keep us going for two to three weeks. Not continuous,
but enough for heat, hot water, and turn the freezers on a few times a
day. Looks like the weather aside from the storm is going to be better
than last time with daytime highs in the high fifties, and lows only in
the higher forties at night for at least the next ten days or so... Dry
and canned goods stored, three drums of water, and we tested the
generator today. I even have an emergency system I designed last storm
to pump up the furnace if something were to happen to the power to the
well. Simple enough. A 55 gallon drum with a hose connector to the
furnace, and a spare tire valve in the other bung hole. If I needed to I
can simply tip the drum on it's side and pump it up with a compressor or
even the bike pump we use at the track.

.... Yeah, we are taking it seriously...
