Nothing left to do but Sit and Wait...
I'm not looking for sympathy...just letting ya'll know what's happening down here. It's looking really bad, with Gustav at Cat 4 and heading more or less straight for my house. They're predicting landfall very close to New Orleans. I just can't believe that this is happening again so soon.
We have done everything that we can to prepare...all that's left is to wait for it. I have no doubt that we will be without power for the better part of a week, but at least we have a generator and plenty of propane to cook with. I've been wanting to clear out the freezer anyway...{=/
Well, OK...a tiny little bit of sympathy would be alright I guess...*+^
Propane Delivery
In Brooktrails we have water and sewer connetions, but no natural gas. So the propane truck comes around every once in a while, with a long hose that can reach far down the hillside to our tank. Even downtown Willits did not get natural gas piped to houses and businesses until sometime around 1970.
The big thicket above the cab of the truck is mostly poison oak. It is something of a wildfire danger to let it remain, but it harbors dozens of wild birds that visit our yard and keep us entertained.
