Nope, no generator & I can not remember power ever being out more than a hour or two at the very most in the past 25 years or so and normally it might flicker once or twice a year if that. Wife thinks it’s gone out twice in the past year or two as she had to reset clocks but was not out more than a couple minutes max
Have wanted one but other things were more important & could never justify the expense along with getting an electrician to set up a circuit or even just getting a generator & setting up a few extension cords so the wife can run it if I was gone
No fireplace, just a good old fashioned Lennox gas furnace we turn the blower on in the fall and it runs 24/7 till turning the furnace off for the season
This wind/snow storm knocked down over 250 power poles East of us out to Sidney Neb from what I’m reading along with a knocking down a handful west of us
I know it’s stupid risking it in this day and time but we don’t want to screw with gasoline & the maintenance needed at this point in life
