BURRRRRR

At 8:30 the generator quit.... Vikki restarted it but it only ran for 2 minutes and quit again.  She pulled the generator into the cabin.... it is on a trolley.  The cabin was way too hot but that is the only way to keep the crawl space from freezing.  Bryan reminded her to put 2 gallons of boiling water down the gray water sink and not to let small trickles of cold go down. 
At 10:30 Vikki went upstairs into the cold loft but it was far too warm to sleep.
At 11:30, 2:30 and 6:30am she was down stairs adding more wood.  But the water froze at 2:30.
On the SBX this morning Bryan said he would be coming back today...... 
The 3000 Honda Generator still would not run properly this morning.  It was just too cold for it.
Down in the crawl space there were 3 candles, an oil lamp and a Coleman lamp all going.  Thermometer read plus 1 C.
At 2:30 this afternoon temp rose to -27 c.  and the generator would work.
Vikki was cabin bound and needed fresh air and took the dogs out for a walk.  Old Hannah got 10 feet out of the gate and set down on her rump with all four feet in the air and would not budge.  She was taken back into the cabin and only Ishi went.
Hopefully Bryan will be back soon.
