Well the good news is that this won't last long and we'll be out in the stangs in no time! The "hype" is over and done as our big storm fizzled out with just maybe 2 to 3 inches on the ground...

Haha, you boonie people and your fancy redundant power. We got somewhere around 5" or so, but I'm not going outside to measure, haha.

I have a 8500 watt generator that keeps us in good shape. I plan to set it up to run the whole house on, just haven't done it. We have gas logs and a gas heater in the back of the house too. That keeps us plenty warm. I'm just glad it's not 5 like it was this time last week.

When the Zombies attack that fancy redundant power will be pretty cool. That combined with Chris and JJ's desire to see a high body count. I should be OK.

Anyway, made the three hour drive to Denver and back to pick this bad boy up today. FYI it pulls like a 10,000 brick.

Did you get the forklift or the trailer or both? Either way, for some reason a forklift isn't something I would picture on a farm. a tractor with forks yes.

I guess that's why I wanted to see one good snow. Just for "old times sake" or whatever. It can all melt today for all I care now. LOL.

We ended up with about 6" here. When I took Jen to work at 9 am most of
the roads were just wet.
