Unplanned Camping

Noreaster hit & we lost power yesterday afternoon.
Most likely will remain without power for another day or two.

Camping in the side yard & watching movies.
Have the honda 3000i running & extension cords to the 5er, sump pump & fridge in the house. 15 gals of gas & 2-5 gal carboys of water.
Will head to the YMCA tomorrow to take a shower.
We’re good for a couple days.

Thanks
Neighbors to the left & right are seniors.
One couple went to their sons the other lady will not leave her house.
I built her a fire in her fireplace & have gone over several times to maintain the fire & plow her driveway.
Offered her to join us for dinner but doubt she will join.
I’ve run out of chain bar oil. Will have lunch (Leftover venison stew) & take a nap…

Any motor oil works just fine, it's all I've ever used and never had excess bar/chain wear.
