Last refresh, I needed 2 cans of spam and more evaporated milk.  I'll
add more butane.  Got rid of 2 expired cans (like 3 years past it).
Also needed tea lights because they look pretty in the window in the
holder so we do that Halloween and Xmas.  Not bad.

Dave mentioned keeping gas.  I filled up two days ahead of the
hurricane.  After, it is amazing how many people complained the day
after because they could not get gas.  Sorry, no sympathy for that when
you live in a hurricane area.

You need to change that gas occasionally. Gas has a short life span.
Fill a nice big can of it, use it for lawn mowing or snow blowing and
and if there is some left after a couple months put it into the car and
get new for the emergency stock.

I don't think Ed does his own yard work.  He definitely doesn't

$100 a month.  In summer, the cut 4X a month, other times of the year 2X a month.
They do me and next door.  Four guys, about 10 minutes.
