How much propane do you have on site and how much longer until that runs out?

I wish I could offer some assistance

Thanks Ed..
We have A/C, hot shower and TV and internet otherwise I would
be living at my office ! I always lose At&T landline but not DSL ??
Have 6 100 lb upright tanks. My business partner lived out here
long before I moved to the jungle... His words were do not put a tank in the ground as
no propane company would be able to get to you in a disaster such as this..
He was right. At least I can throw those up rights in my
old Chevy 4X4 to get propane.. Some companies will not even touch
those tanks laying on their side in the back of truckee. "BS"
Filled up 4 of them yesterday at $2.67 a gallon some places are charging
$4:50 a gallon ! Also "BS"..
We went 7 days with Matthew, went 21 days with Wilma !

The 6 boys from Asplundh were from New York they got a nice lunch
all the water and soda they wanted.. As a bonus my Key Lime tree
was full of fruit that was what they were really impressed with..
Needless to say they left with a big bag full..

I choose to live here and would not trade Area 442 for ANYTHING !! Just ask
any of our CSC members that have been here it is truly a special place and
Patti & I have been blessed...

Glad to hear that you have the ability to refill those tanks, Ken. AC and a fridge are probably the most important and comforting to know you have them both.

Just put Creighton, FL into mapquest to see where you are and now I know why you call it area 442! Highway 442 appears to run right across your town.

Keep taking care of those utility and tree workers and you may get bumped up on the list :]

So glad everyone is able to say they are ok.... our plan for the gathering is done as Tab is working the texas storm "indefinitely" ... or that was what she was told.. Florida took a beating line o haven't seen in a long time !! But that flood in Houston was something else... there are still areas that people are just starting to be able to get into... est was 1million cars with water damage... (what she's working) and I never heard a bomber on houses...

Well I got about half of my shutters off and the yard cleaned up and roof patched. Think I will leave the rest of the shutters up and have the others handy. (Just in case)

Heard from Skip & Carla this afternoon....
Down stairs is a mess. Party refrigerator ended up across
the street in the vacant lot...
Cracker Air a little soggy laying on its side...
Told them we can fix-it !!
They had their power restored last night as well .

More later....
