Auto Correct: Generators


Listen Later

We’re going to get out of our lane a bit today – well, not Coach’s lane! We’re going to talk about generators – they’re engines and that’s coach’s expertise. So whether it’s a generator for when the power goes out when it’s cold, or when there’s been a hurricane or tornado - if you have one, you need to maintain it. Especially now as Hurricane season starts next week.

She tracked the vehicle down then had the police meet her while she retrieved the vehicle.
