No More Cold Nights

Twice this winter we ran out of propane. We are on a monthly service but our tank was only 250 gallons which when it is super cold doesn't go very far. We grill at least 4 times a week even in the winter and we are hardlined to the propane tank for grilling plus the furnace. The wall between the apartment and the residence is not insulated so we are not energy efficient  at the moment. Plus we still keep finding little holes going into the attic where we lose heat. We haven't filled our tank; waiting for it to get completely empty this summer hoping that would happen when it's hot ant propane is cheap. Last week halfway through grilling chicken we ran out of fuel. Now what to do with the old little tank? Good old Craigslist to the rescue. One day of posting and it is sold. 
 










Bill and Sutton used the delivery forklift to take the tank over to the new owners trailer for them to take it away. Love to see that 7 year old driving equipment. This makes special times between Grandpa and Grandson.


 Oops, the chains are too close the back of the forks. Need to move them forward.

Bill said it was great having a guy that knew his chains there to help him position everything for loading. Does that mean he thinks I don't know chains? I thought it was great that I didn't have to think like a guy to hook up the chains. So we were both happy.
 
 
Love it that a young couple with their first house will be using our propane tank for heat now.
