Well, after we had to evacuate the house for nearly a week while new hardwoods were being laid, sanded and finished,we are back in the house today just in time for Florence. At this time the biggest worry is power outage... the storm is down to a Cat 1, but is moving so slowly it will dump lots of rain. We're on a hill so no worries of flooding, but power is a concern with a well. Should have pulled the trigger on a gen, but we've briefly lost power twice in ten years, so it hasn't been at the top of the list. Work is 10 minutes away, and we have a huge gen, kitchen and showers so really no big deal. Plus I have about 5 ways to cook without electricity, so we are OK.

Hope anyone in the path fairs well. I'll probably just spend my time painting the newly remodeled parts. All new appliances next Tuesday! Then we'll have a complete kitchen again after almost 3 months. Whew!

I've heard nothing but good about this generator from the RV crowd.

As soon as I find a buyer for my Honda 2200, I'm getting the Predator.

Thanks, but I need 240V@30A to run the well pump.


"Sold the Honda today. But, Harbor Freight is out of the generator I want. Actually, they're out of
all generators. Hope we don't lose power for too long. I think our longest outage, in 27 years with
this company, has been for about four hours."


Duh!
Considering we're in the middle of hurricane season, it might gave been prudent to get the new generator and test drive it before selling the Honda.


Next week is plenty soon enough. I strongly doubt we'll have any problems with this hurricane. And
if the electricity goes for a day or two, which hasn't happened in the past 27 years, we'll manage.
Thanks for the kind thoughts though.


Nobody bothered to correct his spelling mistake.
