Yes. we have a generator. hooked up to run the essentials. Freezer, fridge, furnace, a microwave and lights in kitchen. Dh was running it for an hour, then shutting it down for 4 hours before running it again. That, mainly because of gas supply even tough we had a decent supply. All the nearby gas stations were also powerless and roads in many areas blocked by downed trees and wires.

Wantoretire (love your screen name!), this will be DHs second knee replacement. Previous one was 4 years ago. He had excellent results and is good about doing exactly as told. Time will tell.

Mom crocheted these a couple of years before she passed away, but never got around to adding the trim. My daughter needed a baby gift for a girl, so I finished them off yesterday. No reason for me to hang on to them, still it's hard to see them go.

The print I’ve framed and have hanging in our RV. The quote, from John Muir, is one of my personal favorites.
