Long day
We are being buffeted by winds in the 30 to 40MPH range with gusts a bit higher. The lights have flickered a few times but nothing serious (crossing fingers).
One of the problems the other day was that the generator that came with the building failed and we lost a lot of our dairy (including an entire case of ice cream). Costco has an incredible deal on a specific generator -- the
Honeywell HW7000ES. Don't know if it is available in all stores but if you are looking for one, see if they carry it. It has a Honda engine and Honeywell electronics -- 7KW for $999.
The generator that failed was only 4,500 Watts and was being run at max capacity. The previous owners of the store were cheap bas&ards so there was no telling where the unit came from or what sort of preventive maintenance it had received.
I will sleep a little more soundly tonight knowing that we now have a bulletproof option.
Welcome to November in the Pacific Northwest...
