Answer
4 weeks... it was after a huge ice and snow storm in north eastern Montana and we lived 50miles from the nearest paved highway.. about 30 miles south of the Canadian border. The electric poles for miles had snapped off in the storm and the electric company had to replace hundreds of them and countless miles of line. So we used a small generator to pump water from the well when we needed it. Other wise we used candles, kerosene lamps. a wood stove for cooking and a fireplace to heat the small house we were in. It was cosy, warm and homey. PLus.. so very quiet.. it is surprising how much noise comes from electric things when they are working. Back round noise really.
