Snow week, details.

We did pretty well logistics wise surviving an unexpected week with no power.
For cooking we used a camp stove. At first I used it outside, but after ski camping in the RV I brought it in the house. It didn't seem much different than the RV stove.

  We entertained ourselves by working outside, shoveling, clearing channels for water to flow to storm drains and talking with neighbors. Inside we had ipod speakers for music.

For lighting we used headlamps and candles. Heat was a gas stove.

 

 

 We no longer think it is excessive to have three coolers, as we used all of them. The big one was our fridge and we added ice a few times. Our freezer was emptied on day two of no power and buried in a snow pile. When we opened it up the other night and it was great. There was snow frozen on the outside, a very good sign.  The meat was still 100% frozen, a few things had thawed a bit but nothing was ruined.

Our raft cooler held the entire contents of the fridge.
