Power Struggle

This week has been all about a power struggle. The short of it all is this: My husband was gifted with a generator. We do need one since tents are largely relegated to sites without power & water. It is nearly impossible to function without power due to:

Billy has to sleep with a c-pap machine.

The dog and I are stuck at the campsite because I still don't have a driver's license. This makes it impossible to do anything Internet without power.

Sooo anyway the challenge is that the gift-generator is large enough to run a small home --5200 watts. It is loud enough to be heard all over the campground. It is a monster and Billy is in love with it.

Compromise: He gets to run it only between the tume he gets home from work and bed time. So far this has been 2 hrs and about enough battery charging to get his c-pap through the night.

More conversations, considerations, and compromises are in our future.

Oh and if any of our friends have power issues this winter, remember ... Billy has power!
