Fire up backpacking stove on 10 year old white gas. Make pot of coffee. Pour a cup. Grab a seat. Watch Gasoline and LP guys run around trying to get fuel or start their generators going before getting their morning coffee....priceless!
9pm. Break last mantle in coleman fueled lantern. Ask guy who got his generator going by 10 am if I can run an extension cord over so I can plug in a light to see what I'm doing.
He says NO! Wish I'd offered him a cup of coffee this morning!
Moral of the story?
Everything is a compromise...
