National Moparts - Heads up, no power

[Hey-O]

Jeez...even I don't try to grow bananas ....and we get a lot less cold weather than you guys.

Before I bought my desertsteel.net metal art palm trees for around my pool, I grew banana trees every years. Big pain in the a** , but they made me feel all warm and fuzzy. They need to be cut down and stored in the winter.

 

[Hey-O]

Between endless amounts of snow and the work to keep up with it, now no power due to freezing rain for weeks in cold weather. It's work just to stay even, little less get ahead. Sorry to hear Wayne, be safe!!

Still a 190,000 without power... wind is blowing 55 MPH today! Only good, it's currently 12C. Back to zero tonight.

Cabella and Canadian Tyre, have a small propane heater for about $150. Uses the little green bottles. We have one in the camper van, and another one for the sheds, or the house.
Canadian regs say do not use inside. US regs say okay to use inside. We have a detector thing in the van. Heater does not set off the detector, but the cooker does. Cooker runs on methyl hydrate and is safe for boat use. Go figure. Anyway, we do not use any of the devices over night.
