Generators

I frequently mention Hurricane Ike in my posts due to the fact that the biggest event in my life over the last year has been that storm, which put me out of my home for the last seven months. I learned a lot of things about a lot of things in the days and weeks following the storm, and have re-shuffled a lot of priorities as far as things I feel it is important for me to have. One thing that I definitely need is a Power Generator, because you really never know when you are going to find yourself without electricity for an extended period of time -- something that can be a really serious issue if you have a family member whose medical condition requires that they have a controlled climate and medication kept at a specific temperature.

We were lucky -- when we first came back to town, the church put us up in the church hall and had a Cummins Generator on standby in case we lost power at any time. I g0ot a quick education in just how critical generators really are. I've since learned that there are some really great Natural Gas Generators on the market that will kick in when the electricity goes out -- and given that we've had a couple of power outages during the past few years during the height of summer, I think that I may need to get one for the house after we move back in in a few weeks.
