    RightHand.

    Quig and I have spoken about this as have Bear and I. It's amazing that some of my Great friends live over 2000 miles away. I am, as you, constantly amazed at how this all works. This is the age of communication and I'm glad to have another little lilly pad for all of us to land on from time to time.

    Looking forward to SM-fest at monkeyman's in the spring.....

    I was inside. Might as well have been out, the power was down nearly all day. (Electric heat.) High for the day was 26.

    You got a gas stove by any chance or even a camp stove? If so you would be absolutely amazed at how much heat you can have if you get a clay flower pot where the top ot it is just a little smaller than the grate over the burner (or slightly larger than the flames on high) and turn it upside down over the burner.
    In my first appartment the heat didnt work and it was a 1 bedroom with windows all around 2 sides and so drafty the curtian moved very noticably in the draft when the wind blew outside. I heated that whole appartment even in sub zero temps with 1 pot on the stove and a fan to stir it and kept it so hot most folks thought it was to hot. Also have used 1 or 2 pots on a stove to heat an entire floor of a 3 bedroom house during power outages and kept it comfortable.

    No such luck, this was the office trailers, not home --. We just went out and started the site vehicles and warmed up a bit that way. Plenty to do in the field as well. :unsure:

    Ahhh, yeah that kind of sucks. I know when ever we go camping in the winter we take a camp stove an flower pots and when we lived in the city we kept a gas stove and flower pots on hand for any time the power went off.

    Should I be concerned that a gift from one of the realtors was a jar of "Cookie Cutouts: Moisturizing Body Butter" and a $100 bill???


    Is that weird? Or is it just me????
