I just finished watching Food, Inc.
I sad, mad and I don't know what else.
I've had my head in tax code and finance books for years.
I can't believe I've been so oblivious to all this.
Wow!

The outlet is the least of your problems right now unless that heater is over 1800watts / 15amps. You mention 100 foot extension cord. That cord needs to be at least #12 wire, not 14 or 16. It must be #12 or even better #10. Many times GFCI's also tend to have low tolerence to moisture.
Extension cords that are #12 or #10 and a hundred feet, will not be cheap. I'm still not sure what DH spent on his, I just know it was spendy.

I just looked at them a couple days ago....almost $80 at Ace Hardware.

No roosters, peacocks, or turkeys in Bellingham. They are talking about a 250.00 fine.
Say, justbugged, what do you do with your color calla lilies exactly?
I've got a pot of pink ones that I was thinking of taking in the garage for the winter.

Yep, cord is 12 Gage.
Can't remember the wattage, will check tomorrow morning.
My main concern is the heater itself. Reading the reviews online for it just makes me cringe. I didn't buy it, and I'm honestly wondering if who bought it truly read the reviews.
Many of them said the thermometer is several degrees off though, so that comforts me. This morning it read 32 degrees which doesn't make sense because nothing died or wilted by day, and tonight's Forecast reads 38 degrees, which still doesn't make sense though because there's frozen dew outside right now.
There is a storm heading right at you. you should be raining by morning. It is going to brush the coast.

You may want to check again. They also do 100' in # 14 and some 50's are 16. And they try to fool unknowing people. See they put thick insulation so they seem like good cords but youe haveto look at the wire size to be sure. It will always be stamped into the outer sheath.
