Disaster pack
 

With all the weird weather going on, I've decided to be prepared. It's more time consuming than I thought. Maybe my mind is not organized enough to what I think I need. Dunno. I may over pack it. So, are any of you guys prepared if a natural disaster hits?

thanks!

Surely a daily prayer is all the preparation necessary?

I have several plans in place depending on the situation.

I have a Bug Out Bag containing a few changes of clothes, a checkbook, basic first aid kit, rations for three days, a weeks worth of my medicine, a weeks worth of my wife's meds too, except for the insulin that remains in the fridge. And a couple of other things.

I also have a disaster plan, which includes my camper, which is stocked and ready to go within fifteen minutes. It contains a month's worth of supplies (food, medicine, fresh water, cash and weapons). I try to keep my LP tanks full and my truck at least 3/4 full at all times. Just in case a fire threatens or something like that.

Over in Allah land they say to trust God but tie up your camel.

Who's gonna take checks in an emergency?

and what are you gonna do with a tied-up camel?


Just remember the toilet paper, people, everyone forgets the toilet paper.

And your girlie things if you need them.

If you should ever have to evacuate from a disaster area in a hot air balloon, don't pickup any girls with little dogs ... they're trouble.

I'm thinking something small, like the house catching fire. Some emergency where I need to get out right now but only for a short time. It's grab and go supplies. Also, I'm too broke to be able to afford a cash stash. And my checkbook contains an ATM card.

For bigger emergencies, such as an evacuation ahead of natural disaster, I go hook onto the camper and head for my alternative site in the Ozarks. For that, I need up to 30 minutes warning.

For the end of the world, even cash won't matter. In that case, I grab more ammo and head to my secret lair.

Cool. where's that? ;)

If I told, it wouldn't be a secret!

and if he told you, then he'd have to ... replenish his ammo.

I used to have a pretty well-stocked bug-out bag. I sold the trauma kit for $250.

Anything you want...:blunt:
