Fine tuning of prepping is in the works following the major ice storm in East Texas this past week. Today, a discussion of what we got right and what we got wrong. Very interesting “school” the universe provides! Plus, in our ChartPack, that alternate count of the (Elliott) wave structure from a few weeks back … Read More
Officially most of the outages should be back up today, but not us…at least so far: The good news is the solar is really cranking and sun is in the forecast. Rany lines out and started cutting wood – tons of it to clean up. Food is good, doing the odd post of Kindle is … Read More
We have sun on our solar panels today. The problem we have is the power company is not expected to get the power on until this weekend. Job numbers came in good and maybe too much so. Given the weak ADP report. No farm month over month was down .5 million which doesn’t make sense … Read More

Just so I could say it was done… We don’t have a crew assigned to our outage yet. Woods alive with crashing of limbs. Maybe we will score a disaster declaration being a tree farm and all. Elaine is reading on her Kindle..me onmine. Nice break from writing but v slow posting via small screen. … Read More
But we did have a big (26″ diameter) tree go down in the yard of the house across the street from us. Taking down power. Except across is 600-feet out here, street is single lane dirt and oil sand road, and we’ve been on backup systems since: Went out and talked to the lineman who … Read More
