[quote:darth:MV8zOTYyNTk1XzcxODA0OTQ1X0FDRUZGRUJF] [quote:darth:MV8zOTYyNTk1XzcxODA0ODAxX0NFMkM5NTk0] This thread has made me think. I thank the Lord that I have a farm and am surrounded by my loving family. We will NOT bug out, not for nuke war, ebola plagues, zombie hordes, or financial armageddon (everything is PAID off). However, if I were single and very poor, I would consider bugging out in a canoe or other small boat. The Brazos river is fairly close and its only a few more miles to the Gulf of Mexico. The bays are safe for small boats (unless there is a hurricane), fish are plentiful, and you can row or sail away from danger. There are lots of swamps and flats to hide out in as well. Even in Houston, you could take a canoe down a bayou to the bays. Biggest problem is fresh water, but you could set up a solar still. Second biggest problem is a diet of seafood, but you can always trade with folks on land. I have been prepping for several decades, so there is not much more I could use except even more food, ammo, etc. I have been concentrating on how to grow more crops on my land and how I could expand to neighbors' land with their permission. If SHTF, more food is critical. [/quote] BTW, I once read a book about a crazy Canadian and his son who took a canoe from the lakes of Canada down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico then around the Gulf hugging the shore to the Orinoco in Venuzuela and then to the Amazon. It was a trip of 25,000 miles by canoe. Crazy! [/quote]

Continuation of another thread of wonderful people with the best ever ideas for practical prepping even for those with little money.
We discuss power outages including CME and EMP, heating and cooking methods, first aid, foods; we run disaster scenarios to see if we know what to do.
This is probably the only prepping thread a person would need, whether long-time prepper here to share, or newbie prepper here to learn and everyone in between.
Welcome!! Join us! Learn! Teach! Enjoy!!
