Evening all

Dry here in the GSF

 

[GregD]

Hi Leadeye, dry here too.
I don't expect it to last long.

 

[Leadeye]

My internet satellite will check out here directly like it did last night. There are good and bad things about living on the frontier.

I had one short interruption

 

[Suprtek]

Every time we have a little storm my power goes out. This is getting really old.

 

[Leadeye]

Power loss I can handle, generator kicks in. Once bad weather moves in it's goodby internet and tv. I keep a battery powered weather radio handy to keep up.

I can still get interwebs on my phone as long as my battery holds out. I have a 5500W generator in my shed that is in great shape but it hasn't been started in years. I need to service that thing.

 

[GregD]

Sounds like it is getting ready to start again here.

 

[Leadeye]

Used to have the manual generator and disconnect and it was a great setup for the money. When I got old and we moved out to the woods, I went with the auto setup.

Howdy Sam

 

[Suprtek]

Howdy Sam. Southeast Indy has a lot of people without power right now, including me. How are you guys doing in your neck of the woods?

 

[SEIndSAM]

Nothing happening here...

 

[SEIndSAM]

I drove through that storm west of Indy coming home from Dubuque....

 

[Snapdragon]

It's just starting now for us.

 

[Suprtek]

Been without power for about 40 minutes now here. Starting to get pretty muggy in the house. Not good for sleeping tonight.
