Remember that one and there was a lot of damage to the infrastructure which is why it took so long. Lines were down everywhere and may poles needed replacement. That was the same storm that made parts of rt 109 look like a tornado had come through.

Hardware store in Meredith will fill 100 pounders as well, they charge $80 but thier points card every other one is 10% off. Having somebody do it for you is crazy expensive. I have three bottles and try to refill in the winter by snowmobile :-)
