<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 2875943, member: 56859&quot;]Hmm.&nbsp; That looks interesting but I have a propane-powered 12kW generator on the way.&nbsp; What I&#039;d like is a Tesla powerwall with the ability to charge it via solar or propane.&nbsp; <i>That</i> would be something!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I love provincials and I love Domna, so those tend to follow me home <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Too bad the excuse didn&#039;t fly-- we&#039;ve been working since the day after Irma <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>That offer is so kind and generous, Gerard!&nbsp; I have a generator on the way and am embarrassed that I hadn&#039;t previously bought one.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>For those who want to help the island in general, I suggest going through one of these organizations:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.usvirecovery.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.usvirecovery.org/" rel="nofollow">https://www.usvirecovery.org/</a></p><p><a href="https://vistrong.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://vistrong.org/" rel="nofollow">https://vistrong.org/</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Although there were virtually no leaves on any trees, and most were broken to their main trunks and branches, things are already greening up nicely.&nbsp; Repairing the buildings will of course take considerably longer.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not certain of the time frame but Irma happened in daylight hours on September 6th.&nbsp; I think the strong winds began around 11 a.m. or so.&nbsp; The brief dark periods in the time lapse were probably something obscuring the camera.&nbsp; Looks like the camera was moved a couple of times before things got really bad.</p><p><br /></p><p>...</p><p><br /></p><p>The apartment I&#039;m renting gets 2-3 bars of AT&amp;T signal although on the &quot;LTE&quot; network.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know what that is or means but it seems far inferior to the 4G network.&nbsp; Even with 2-3 bars I usually can&#039;t load a webpage.&nbsp; After working at the condo today I swung by the office to pilfer the wifi signal and catch up on email.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
