Granny's gone and done it again

We have two heating oil tanks under the front porch. The heater/burner is run electric but it burns oil that heats the water boiler. Water runs through the baseboard. (Not radiators) So we use oil all year to heat our water. But if the power goes off, we have no heat.
This area is the coal regions but the government did away with a lot of coal burning. There is no natural gas pipe line through here. A lot of people use propane.
We got a propane heater as back up. Put up some extra carbon monoxide alarms. The heat lasts longer then our baseboards but it gives off a slight smell. But sometimes I can smell oil from the burner when it starts up as well
Are you rural?

We are in the boro. But it seems rural. The traffic we have here is just people that live here. It's not a state road either. The generation before this, the coal mines owned all the houses and stores. There aren't any local businesses so it's not like young people moving in.
It's like a town that doesn't change...
