Welcome to the forum Keith.
Yep, fuel storage is what it is all about. There are lots of ways to do it depending upon your resources and space - but it is very very important if you intend to use that gennie much - that and keeping that gennie running.
I've seen many a gas generator go kaput after using it for only a few days or so during a power outage and/or remote situation while camping. Most people know how to fill them with gas, that's about it. Few know how much regular maintenance they require to keep them running.
So have plenty of oil, spark plugs, spare brushings, etc., and be prepared to do maintenance every 50 hours run-time or so, if you intend to run that gennie as your main power source.
