So, were grateful to have a cell handy. Yes, that solar option would have been good to have had after that storm. When you're stuck like we were, it's good to have a variety of options!<br /><br />Kate -- Yes, I'd recommend it. You never know what's going to happen anymore.<br /><br />Why -- You are just too D*MN funny.NVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05833093597689579655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-25956886374804120532010-06-19T13:17:33.247-05:002010-06-19T13:17:33.247-05:00I think I actually have one of these. I think it ...I think I actually have one of these. I think it was a gift from my mother in law, who has spent of good deal of her life in the weather-abundant Midwest. <br /><br />I say I "think" I have this because, of course, I have no idea where it is. Just like I never have any idea where a decent flashlight is. I can never find one, even with all the lights on. I have no idea what I'll do when all the lights go out. <br /><br />Because I am impractical by nature, the husband gets to manage all the practical things, which means of course I'm not paying attention to where anything gets placed. I think I know where something is, only to find that it isn't there when I need it. Then the cursing starts. <br /><br />During the last big quake, we sat in our car and listened to the radio.<br /><br />All I can do is hope he's close by the next time a big one hits. <br /><br />Yeah, I'm doomed.Why S?https://www.blogger.com/profile/16430725193750271819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-32701206434627998602010-06-17T20:57:28.016-05:002010-06-17T20:57:28.016-05:00That's really cool, I had no idea something li...That's really cool, I had no idea something like this existed.

...Now I'm wishing I had a solar option on mine.<br /><br />Emergencies are one of the reasons I'll always have a landline phone. No guarantee it will work, but they seem to be pretty amazing during power failures and are not on the regular power lines, as you likely know.Karen Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306986336556283751noreply@blogger.com
