Readiness
We have learned that when you live in
the country you had better be prepared to take
care of yourself. Unlike some folks who have lived
here for decades we are not willing to go without
electricity for long periods of time. Hence
the delivery of a propane tank for our generator that will
keep essential services running- like the freezer full of
food, the refrigerator,hot water and the well pump.
We are ready for winter now.
