That’s double what we have Edit: Hmm I might check that at some point, the person who told me that isn’t a reliable source.
Solar powers come on a long way, you don’t have to have bright skies to make it worthwhile anymore.
Although I suspect all those trees around your place would scupper solar power for you anyway

Yes that's true. Heavily wooded to the point we only have one small spot to grow vegetables and herbs.

That would suit me.
I often suffer with paying the price for grands plans.
I had to reel myself back in just doing some planters for the outdoor kitchen

Power came up right as MrsT was pizzing and moaning about how “the power probably won’t be back until Wednesday, just in time to lose it again!”

All in all, out for 14 hours.

The first year I was back here the power averaged our 10 hours/month. Pita that...

I was gonna drive down and help you BBQ grill all your freezer meats.

Seriously though, I'm very glad you got power back.

Not much time to create in the kitchen latelyBUT...I just noticed this. I'm proud of being a part of this wonderful community, and just stopping by gives me a sense of calm, even though I don't have much to share lately.
