We’re watching Ike. HB is watching Hanna. And, HL is probably watching One Life to Live.
Anyway, Ike’s forecast has been downgraded and is not expected to be as strong when it hits the coast of Florida. Take a look at the projected path.
Last night, I went to Hell-Mart to buy some additional gas cans (for gas to power the generator), some more extension cords and oil for the generator. Of course, they didn’t have any gas cans or the type of extension cords I needed. But, they did have the oil. That store never has anything I need.
I ended up patronizing amazon.com despite the fact that I was swearing them off less than 24 hours ago. Yeah, yeah. I’m a hypocrite. But whateva, I do what I want!
Using my Prime membership, I will get these items on Monday.
- 2Â 5-Gallon Metal Gas Cans (to supplement the 2 we already have)
- A 10.7 Gallon Fueling Station (to make filling the generator tank easier)
- 2 100-Foot 15Amp 125V extension cords
- A 15Amp 12V outdoor power block
We’ll have a total of 30 gallons of fuel which should be enough to run the generator for about 3 to 5 days.
Of course, now that I’ll have all these things, Ike will probably end up hitting New Zealand.
