Beyond the Bugout Bag: Now What?
Calling all Parents: It's time to become a Prepper.
The podcasts have been quiet. Real-life and the day-to-day gobbled up that time. But it was all related, as it was dealing with the specific issues we were exploring.
Just looking out the window at my house you can see there are difficulties ahead. Not too far down the road either. The creek is now dry. The air is thick, tastes like soot, and has an AQ rating of 189 due to the fires. Spaces are showing up more frequently on the grocery store shelves than the workers. It seems that anything you say is "offensive" or "an affront to my freedom! ".
But the reality is we need people who know how to make stuff work when everything goes south. Who deals with the "Now What" questions daily. It is getting hotter. It is dryer. People are dying from Covid. I don't care which party you identify with. That will change. What I care about is that you can care for yourself.
About this time in 2018, I proposed the idea of teaching folks how to not get taken buying a pre-made product. Most people around here did not know what I was talking about though the trend had been going on since about 2010. Times change.
One fire, one endless pandemic, and some civil unrest later this is a common topic. But the rules and goals have shifted. By actually having to BUG Out, you learn what you really need. I was pleased to learn from what I was doing.
My goal is the same as it was over three years ago when I started this. To help you and your family be prepared. Podcasts and articles will be back very soon. Then we can move forward.
