What are you guys gonna do if the power goes out this winter?

Obviously this question mainly applies to people in cold regions, but does everyone have a plan for power or furnace outages this winter?

My first plan was a generator, but you cannot leave them unattended unless you get a high end model. My second plan was a vent free propane heater but those only go up to 30k btus, require me to go get a permit, and cost about 250$ to have installed plus the tank & propane. My current plan involves Big Buddy propane heater which will produce heat for several hours. If there is a major, major outage then I'll have to bag everyone up and head for higher ground with power. I also have a kerosene heater as a backup but I don't plan to need it as I have enough fuel even on full blast to keep the big buddy going for almost 24 hours. Eventually, I'd like to get a vented propane backup but for now this will have to do.
