Happy Day! Happy Day!

Not far from our house, across the main road ...
Onto a street with two enormous (you could lose a car in there) mud holes...
past a roundabout...
And a mile down a very bad road ...









is a place called RDC GAZ.
It was there that we finally got what we needed for the propane stove that we want to use when we have no power. Brent has talked to the lady there several times a week for almost a month to trying to arrange to get a regulator, a hose and a tank of propane.
TODAY WE GOT IT!
Now when there is no power, we can still eat something besides bread and cheese!
HAPPY DAY! HAPPY DAY!
Isn't it amazing how important a little thing like a hot meal can be?

Now if you could just get Cox e-mail addresses to receive your e-mails.

Cox is like a seagull that won't eat crickets.

Love your new little stove. We just bought one at Costco called 'The Volcano" that runs on either propane or charcoal. I just love eating too much to think about not being able to cook in an emergency. We cooked on it today and it worked great. I think I will use it outside to do my canning so I don't ruin my glass stovetop...Yeah for propane---in Africa AND America!!

Hooray! While up north we lost power and were stranded at the hotel due to a snow storm, and I must say I felt a little closer to you guys. I got a little taste of the boredom and frustration that you must feel all the time! :(
