UPDATE TIME: Neighbor came to me this afternoon with a chainsaw, asked if I had experience with one...???...little confused, I said yeah, I've used one a time or two...asked if I could cut the tree up that was blocking our entrance since NOBODY with the HOA was returning calls...so I did just that...fast forward 2 hours, same neighbor pulls up to my back door, which is open for airflow through the house...asks me to come give him a hand...walk outside he says this is for cutting the tree out of the way...and low and behold there is a Honda generator in his back seat...its an older one, and I need to replace the fuel line...which I happen to have some handy...he filled the tank up and on 4th pull it fired up...H*#L YEAH!!! Still have to replace fuel line, will happen in about 30 minutes, then the refrigerator and the tank will be back on line (minus lights of course)...he had a much larger generator for himself that I more than graciously wen t and help him unload off his truck...loving my little close knit community right now ;Woot...the bad part of the update...may be as much as 2 weeks before power is restored...
