GREAT Days At The Pump

We gots lots of hydro damn power here and our place is all electric. New houses here use natural gas, got lots of that to. All the old oil burners are pretty much gone few still around and inspected many when doing home inspections. I hate the old oil burners gas is much cleaner and easier.

I just paid 1.99 a gallon when I went and put gas in the Mustang.

Here is just one pic of the many Hydo dams we have this is Bonnivelle Dam on the Columbia, one of many on it. We gots lots of cheaper Electricity. Matter of fact we had nuclear power plants here that have all been shut down in Oregun.

all electric here except the kitchen stove ,I put propain gas in , a bit large two car garage a 18X40 shop , the barn all on the same bill around $440 a month house is about 1700 sqf shop needs a heater yet Has a huge fan for summer & open windows

Ours being all electric our heat is on all the time during the winter plus lights. Shop lights stay on 24-7 to keep the moisture from the bikes. Our electric bill a month in the winter runs around 180.00. It's nice during the summer when it's shut off and very seldom have to run the A/C

When doing home inspections I always looked for old oil tanks in homes in certain areas. It was a big deal if I found one especially the buried ones. The sellers would then have to have it inspected by a certified person. Then the tank would have to be decommissioned by filling it with usually sand. Locate guys made good money looking for them to with their special locate devices. I know it cost a bundle decommissioning a oil tank that was buried in the ground. Ground contamination is a big deal anymore and takes thousands of bucks to have it done. When ever I found a running oil furnace I could look in the burner to tell if it was burning Ok. But I always called it out to be inspected by a licensed expert in that field. Plus many times it vented into an old chimney and that would have to be inspected.
Gas furnaces can also be dangerous if the heat exchange is bad (cracked). Did an inspection on an older home once where the sellers were moving to a nursing home because they were always so sick. Found a large break in the heat exchanger and exhaust gases were going back through the heating supply lines and was making them sick. Surprised it didn't kill them. Always recommend getting gas and oil furnaces inspected on a regular basis.

You couldn't build that dam today

Yea the environmentalist would be all over you. Bad enough when they think that the fish are all being killed and there not. But I know the cost today would kill it as we're now to busy spending all the extra money on welfare programs that don't work.

Frigging tree hugged frog lovers fish fuggers would keep it in court for years

Friggen tree hugging hippies shut down logging here with that spotted Owl lie.

Shoot them hippies would tie themselves to trees build a tree stand in a tree and dared them to cut the trees with them in it. They also set logging trucks on fire. All in protest for the environment. Many of them went to prison but hey now their running our state government. Look what Obummer now wants to do, free community college if they stay in school. Where's the money coming from Obummer. When I was in community college I worked and went to school to pay for it.
I really hate them liberal pukes
