Hello Folks,

Just an FYI, we are running right now on battery power because the
generator did not start after changing the oil this afternoon. We are in
a near white-out blizzard right now and it looks like the generator got
packed with snow/ice inside. I've carried it into the house so it can
thaw and dry. Either that, or we have water in the gas tank. If either
of these are the problem, I will get it fixed and we will continue to be
online tomorrow. If I can't get the generator started I may not have
enough battery power to run the satellite dish, so don't be alarmed if
you don't hear from me. We have plenty of food, water and heat (and gas)
to last several weeks, just no way we are going to drive out of here for
at least a week. The ground was saturated with an unusually heavy rain
before it got cold and turned to snow (5+ foot drifts and tore down our
main corral fence). The driveway (6.5miles) will be impassible for some
time I am guessing. The good news is this should help the drought and
fill a few ponds! I know our pond by the house filled _before_ the snow
came.

This could be a good thing. I could take a few days to get the house
cleaned up and painted so I can finally be fully set up, just can't seem
to pry myself away from programming

Deron
