WINTER IS HERE! Besides winter driving, make sure you're prepared at home for this winter season. For our infamous power outages, you'll need emergency lighting with fresh batteries, food and water, and everything necessary to keep you warm. Make sure your exterior faucets are covered, and hoses put away. Also, don't forget your pets; make sure they're taken care of too! Don't let the fact that we've had a mild season fool you, the cold will be here! |
