We Have Back Up Power

When you live out in a rural area losing power can always happen even on a "perfect" weather day.  Living rural also means if you lose power you are not the first priority to get it back.  Knowing this and experiencing it Tim installed our generator so that it is now ready to go to work when the power is off for a lengthy time.  Our generator was with us on our first big trip once we retired.  It was a lot of extra weight to carry but we wanted to be covered.  After the first trip we realized it was too heavy and put it in storage and we purchased smaller one for emergencies.  Our big generator sat in storage for five years.  We then put it in our shed at the farm where it sat for another couple of years.  We did use it at the farm but it meant Tim had to get it our, set it up and then run it.  Now with the generator's new home it is protected from the elements and can be turned on literally in less than 30 seconds.  With winter coming, you have to be prepared and Tim is making sure we will be well protected this year.  Thanks Tim!
