Wow!!!
Are you on Automatic Delivery??
Bet it felt good giving him the boot!
Have had a total of 350 gal delivered since March09 and sitting on 1/2 tank. (Used to go through 900-1000 gal)
Sorry OPEC.....NOT!!
 
Good one hoss! I took my first 150 gallon delivery since August this week. I only burn nights and weekends but its all good.
 
i'm still working on the 1/2 tank from 2 yrs ago. furnace only runs for about an hour on sundays when i clean the pellet stove, or a little bit at nite during the bitter cold, just to help out.

yeah, that much red paint showing means he is empty or nearly there, full he would be down to the black, in the second pic, you can almost see the top of his rudder, if the prop was turning fast there would be a lot of wash coming off the top of it there also.

Was that on the Penobscot River?

I just went through Stockton Springs yesterday on my way to Jefferson

Ayuh, and she's riding high because they offload enough in Searsport to run the shallower channel to Bucksport, finish bunkering there. And, not to be nosy, but WHY does anybody go to Jefferson? I can understand Madison, or Monroe, maybe even Clinton, but Jefferson???????????

haha, I know right? My twin neices had their one year birthday party yesterday at their grandparents place in Jefferson.... otherwise, I wouldn't have been there
 
I took 66 gallons last week. Last fill-up was last spring. Screw the oil speculators.
 
Its a little tough to see from that pic, but I think the Captains head is hung low after being turned away. :)
 
I had 10 gal in the tank to start the yr... its still there....
