Indeed. Now that we're both retired, we're most comfortable avoiding crowds whenever we can. We usually don't leave the cabin between Friday afternoon and Monday morning.

How far west/southwest? The pacific airshow is going on. So either that, or skywriters? Chemtrails arent a real thing.

You're welcome, Walkermuggz. I have heard positive things about the Predator generators as well. There are lots of options out there. I happen to have two WEN generators, a small inverter one at our cabin here in Bear City, and a slightly larger one at our DTH house. I have been happy with both of them.

What's going on in the sky west/ southwest of Big Bear? Jet flying erratically making off and on Chem trails?
