Re: Hurricane Irene
Franc - I love the numbers you mention - last time we looked into this option it was $$$$$. Of course that was awhile ago - probably after the last hurricane when I had to dump all freezer stuff. So,plz send more info for future reference (and action).
Stocked up at the grocery - have lots of wine and beer and chips. That's what I like to live off of in times of stress. Well - I also have lots of veggies - good with dip and wine and beer. When you really need this stuff is before and after the event - during the hurricane I just cower. Once it is over, we share everything with neighbors and friends. It is a toss up as to if it is coffee ( from a neighbor with a gas stove) sodas, or something stronger. Grocery traffic was heavy today. 'Nuff said.
This will be the first hurricane for my XFIRE. I'm hoping we both make it through in good shape.
