It was pretty easy to get gas down here after about 10 days and this year some gas stations will be running on generators so the fuel situation should be better. But I figure being over prepared is better then being under prepared.

I have thought about getting a few more of those 55 gallon drums to put non potable water in for flushing toilets and things like that but I am going into this season with 50+ gallons of bottled drinking water. Last year I had enough water for drinking but ended up filling buckets up with water from the woman's pool across the street for flushing toilets as we lost our water for 3 days.

Publix supermarkets are trying real hard to have all their stores running on generators this year and Home Depot was running on generators last year. Publix is the largest food stores down here.

I just hope I don't loose both my cable modem and backup adsl and be left with no internet connection.
