Collapse Survivor: “There Was Little Room For Error… Either You Learn Fast Or End Up Dead”
SHTF Plan ^ | 3/17/15 | Selco

Posted on 06/28/2015 5:36:29 PM PDT by Kartographer

The items for trade during my SHTF very often changed value, and some of them became unavailable for some period of time, just to suddenly show up again much more expensive.

Yes, situation in the city dictated that, but also people, the black market lords made this happen. The whole situation was always changing where and if you can find what you were looking for.

Some of the items that were circulating in the city were completely new to everyone, one of the reasons was that all sorts of stuff from humanitarian aid was coming to the city through different channels and from all different parts of the world.

This weekend, The Bride and I were out at one of our local veterans retreats.

Saved several sprained ankles that The Bride didn’t have to treat...

“a dozen or so of those landscaping solar lights”

I have three solar lanterns. These lanterns were developed for, and used by, medical and volunteer people who go to third world countries where power is scarce or nonexistent. They are set out during the day and used at night and give off enough light to illuminate a room. There is a low and high switch on them. When these people leave the country they leave the lanterns with the people.

Two of these lanterns are general use. One is designed to concentrate light in one spot for close work or to read a book.

I keep a general one in a window where sunlight comes in so it's ready to use if I need it.

Many Christian believers have a "feeling" about September

...due to all the writings and talk about the fourth blood moon.
