Standby generator

ITD and NHSkier,
It sounds like your system is working great for you. I have a couple questions about your set up with a portable generator. Do you feed your electrical panel or sub panel with a transfer switch or just plug specific things into the generator? How do you run your well pump? What would you do about a prolonged winter outage if you can't get to your home to set it up and re-fuel?

That Honda generator is a great one. We used a 2K watt Honda with a 6 day outage during Irene, but no well water
