Just tell them warm beer is an Iowan tradition lol.
I know it's German LOL. But Iowans are going to be so much different than folks from Miami you could use that excuse for anything.GERMAN!! not Iowan!!warm beer.. is that like cold coffee??? bleeeehhh!!!!!!!
Just think...the first Iowan they meet is going to be the inimitable WS himself.

Just here for the free beer!
You need to run that generator anyway since you bought that el cheapo gas powered stick saw instead of the electric one. Shoulda coulda woulda..... lolUn-friggin'-believable... no BS... I have the emergency generator running right now‼ Big clap of thunder about 20 minutes ago, lights flickered... and went out‼ Likely just a transformer up the line and they'll have us back in service before noon... but still.
My wife looks like she could start sobbing any second now
I keep telling her it'll be just fine... we're in good shape. I patched the pressure tank, got the septic working, bought her a new vacuum, got the grass cutter running and finished the mowing last night, the new alternator should be at the parts house this morning... and worst case, I've got plenty of gas for the generator

The week from hell no doubt Spidey. Glad ya gettin a handle on things.
Go buy a little plastic kiddie pool, sling a wheelbarrow load of sand around it, give 'em all a cold brew, and tell 'em look...its South Beach. Or let me guess...the wheelbarrow chit the bed on ya too. Lol
Them there Miamians are liable to never venture to the Midwest again.

Reminds me of a story a guy I worked with told me.He had the honey pumper guy over to pump out his septic tank.His wife sent out one of the grandkids with two straws.
All is well...
A bit of a late evening last night... but all is well.
I forgot to ask what time everyone rolls out... but it's 5:30 now, and with all the windows open in the house, I'm thinkin' some sort'a internal combustion engine is in order

That's why you need a larger saw with a muffler mod.All is well...

Hey you woodchucks, quit chucking my wood!
Man, when it rains it pours!I actually have relatives (wife's side) from Miami, FL coming today... them and their 5 kid (ages 11 to new born).
So... we've been trying to get ready for this, and it's been a week from hell. Not only did the septic plug, the water pressure tank started leaking, the grass cutter sputtered and quit, and the vacuum cleaner quit. And to top it all off, while I'm working on the septic yesterday the wife gets in her van to go into town for "supplies" and the friggin' alternator has crapped-out.
Weather radar shows a thunderstorm bearing down on us right now... should be here within the hour.
Any bets on where the only lightening bolt will strike
I mean, if you're gonna' host a family reunion and have 7 house guests for 4 days, and the running water quits, then the toilet quits, ya' can't clean the carpet or cut the grass, and the grocery hauler dies... why not have the electricity quit also?? A perfect end to a week from hell‼
I better go check the beer fridge, it likely went up in smoke overnight.
Been here since '98...never a bit of trouble from the water heater. BIL/SIL n fam come for the weekend, SIL had one of them weeks and hadn't showered for a day or so, she says "man, it's gonna feel so good to have a hot shower" (I'm sure you see where this is going by now) Yup, warm water soon turns to cold.
Can't say I've ever had a run like yours though spidey, hope ya have better luck for the remainder of this lil shindig.
At least ya only had to fix the mower, van and vacuum. Landlord fixes the well and septic...right!?

you should have expected the mower to break! It is a husky after all.

Well if it makes you feel any better, I had to put a new roof on the house this weekend in lieu of cutting firewood.
I've split lots of wood recently but haven't run a saw in a month. Thinking I'll take a few days off next week and rip it up.
