I live in Southern Ohio there is no "countrier" place in the Midwest.
I've been long on precious metals (Lead, Copper, etc.) for over 20 years. Plus several different ga. of Remington's finest greeners and a host of rifles and such.
As far as food goes we have a garden and the Hunting is good less than 500 yards from where I currently sit. (We live in the middle of the Wayne Notational Forest)
No worries here mate.
Glad to hear it. I am in western Oklahoma’s wide open spaces. Rain today has delayed my potato planting, but I will get it finished sometime this week. I think we can make through any economic dowturn as long as we are vigilant and keep a sense of humor.
