Cousin found her way here and grandkids came over. Good visit, did a 10c tour of the base, I had forgotten they came to visit in my previous life as an Air Force flight line troop. I'm lucky if I can remember where I set my beer down half the time anyway. Dinner is fridge grazing, time for buds and suds.

Spent all day helping the farmer down the road, he was a little short handed and needed me to shovel shit and work the fields.

Hard telling but that wasn't going anywhere without the tree gone or demolishing the yard without going in the drink. I fucked up a wall and the yard.

Should've cut the tree.

Hope the misses is doing well:leaf:

Freakin great, PG&E is planning on shutting off power for days in huge areas due to weather conditions. Who the hell is going to pay for the food in my freezer if these idiots turn off power? My plants will HAVE to go outside and I only have a few weeks left to finish them. This is BS.
That sucks. We picked up a little generator off Amazon for 300 bucks. Might be worth it for the food. Keeping your plants on their light schedule would be priceless.

Problem is I would need a couple, one for freezer, and one capable of running AC and lights in my room, 1500W...We are looking at 101, and 100 Mon and Tues, so I guess we just sit and sweat. They say they need to inspect every line before turning power back on, and it takes days. The power in my neighborhood is all underground, which makes it even more stupid.

2 years of massive wildfires due to their negligence; in bankruptcy court. They have to make a show that they are doing something to mitigate it. The rolling blackouts are a shit ton cheaper than actually sending crews out to remove the brush and tree hazards doncha know. They spend huge $$ on the PR campaign to convince us all that blackouts are for our benefit; plus some cash for the PUC and politicians of course

Down here sometimes for medical they can make exceptions. If not, a really good cooler and dry ice may get you through. Lastly throw a gigantic party :/

I guess I'll go take pictures of the food I have and I have pics of my plants, my grow is legal so if they ruin it they can pay retail for my crop, but how do you get money out of a bankrupt company? Guess I'll need to take the rotten food and deliver it to their office. I am beyond pissed. What the hell are they going to do for people that have medical needs for electricity, or the elderly that need AC? Buy them generators and pay for an electrician to install them properly?

Ever look at gov surplus auctions? Could probably get a BIG multi fuel generator for cheap.

I was out twice for 10 days total one month, they sent a $50 ck.
That was for new underwear from them using a helicopter to clear snow off nearby trees along the line.
