    Default Stay safe.

    Welcome hade a severe storm go through here that came up outta Tx through Oklahoma, Missouri. It was still going east last I seen.85% of Springfield Missouri is out of power. Here in this Trailer park we are out of power, primarily due to tree's in the park taking out power lines. They will need to come in and redo a lot of them. Tornado west of us, just straight line wind damage here. 70 MPH sustained with a couple times hitting 100mph. Power company advises some without power for several day's. Ms. Joyce and I are good. Prayers going out to those who didn't fair so well.

    We (Ms Joyce and I), are ok. Lost everything in 2 freezers before I could find a generator. Just happened to be at Lowes when a delivery truck brought 8 pallets in. A Fireman 9400/7590 Dual fuel. Sale price $999.00, $100.00 off if you applied for Lowes card approved or not, plus 10% off. Being a veteran. VA discount don't work on sale items, but I got an contractors 100 ft extension a 5 gal gas can, and a 47 oz container of 4 stroke oil and got $18.00 of their. All in all out the door under the $999.00 original cost. Still no idea on when power restored. City Utilities says could be 10 days or more...

    Good news. Start the brand new generator back up and let it run until it dies of fuel starvation. Clears the system. I know, regular occurrence for us.
