   My monthly exercise of the Onan generator was due, and I figured I   
   better get it done before the deep freeze sets in.  I was kind of   
   surprised when I went out there, the LED panel showed the house   
   batteries very low.  It snowed heavily a while back, and though I did   
   uncover the solar panel going to the engine battery, not much I can do   
   about the roof panels.  Not enough juice to even try and start the Onan.   
     So I had to put it on shore power for about two hours.   
      
   I've always had a hard time getting that generator to fire up, but I'll   
   be darned if it didn't just pop right off today at about 27F!  Surprised   
   the hell out of me.  Turned on everything I could to get a load on it   
   and let it run for about 25 minutes.   
      
   I guess I'll have to hook it up to the house every couple weeks if the   
   roof solar panels don't get the snow melted off.  Also, jotting it down   
   on my list of reasons I need to build a garage for it.  ;-)
