Similarly-minded family, friends and acquaintances.
A versatile skill set.
A pack of hunting dogs. Try to keep back up 1 month of dog food in aluminum garbage cans.
Try to keep a stash of liquor stored but somehow it always disappears. KEK
Thanks for this thread. Made me realize we’re in pretty good shape but some items would be a reall pain in the ass not to have. I think I’ll go buy some more dog food. Maybe stop at the liquor store, too.
The use for blue tarps is one I has not considered, thanks for that tip. Other than that I think we are prepared in most ways as you are. Funny you mentioned the disappearing liquor - I still have a full bottle of Old Crow that none of my kids would drink and water down as teenagers - they are in their 40's now so try that! No one will drink it except as last resort!
My pleasure. You must’ve read the long version I wrote before I deleted a big chunk of it. I just felt I was being verbose and didn’t want to come across as a braggart. But I have lived semi-rural my entire life so a lot of what wrote is standard operating procedure. KEK, 40 years?!? I’d say that’s some potent antiseptic!
Have some jumbo size blue tarps enough to cover the roof with should a Maui-type situation arise, God forbid. Already had them, actually, for other projects but decided to set the blue ones aside in an EZ to grab location just in case.
I hear ya - I deleted a bit of mine before posting too. Have also lived rural most of my life and am thankful for it. It would be much harder to prepare living amongst hundreds or thousands of unknown people. Being self sufficienct is a passion of mine - I can carry on at great lengths when given a chance! Two is one and one is none - you know what I'm talking about

Blue tarps are a good thing to prevent spontaneous roof combustion.
KEK! 🤣That’s a great way to put it, yes.

So, what were you saying about blue tarps?
Put it on the roof to prevent getting Maui’d.
