Yeah, but it's just like camping!
It sucks getting old. We gotta keep up our core strength, and buy ice cleats.
I keep mine stuck to my daily use boots. But truck is a good spot fr shr!
Ice spikes are the best investment!
Yeah, it's like a small pot belly stove but runs on kerosene. We keep a window cracked for ventilation and have used it for several years. It's just a pain to setup. Luckily for us, the power just came back on. No idea why they said Saturday but I'm grateful as hell it's back.
Sorry about your tush. Hope you and crew are staying toasty inside at least.
We have but I'm disabled and dealing with the wood would be more trouble than it's worth honestly. We have a lake house an hour away that had power and we could have gone there if it got too bad. It just reminds me of how dependent we are to the grid.
Hotel would work but the closest one is over an hour away. I'm out deep in the hills lol. I'll be testing the generator out tomorrow to make sure it's ready for the next time.
Solar panels or a wind mill? It used to take 11 cords of wood to heat my home in Big Bear Lake for one winter and sometimes you'd barely squeek through.
I like a good Pu-erh tea. A million years ago there was this little tea shop in Los Angeles Chinatown. I loved going in there and shopping through their teas. Sigh........ long gone now but it was amazing
We have some good shops in China Town, Seattle. I get most of my teas from my friend Steve. He owns a teashop called Enthea, in Portland. Steve has some old connections to incredible teas, some of the best ive ever had.
I was impressed by your lovely teapots. I bet Seattle has some great places for tea. This was an old musty type shop from years ago and that was in the early 1970s. I was lucky to see them before they shut down (the old man who owned it passed, sad).
That is sad. It sounds like a historical tea shop.
