I have plenty of vegetable seeds. I even have a deep well with a hand pump. I have 22 hens and one gay rooster (useless for propagation). I have 4 horses, 1 saddle and 2 donkeys, one donkey trained to carry a pack. I have a 4 acre ‘lake’ loaded with fish. Plenty of wild berries, several wild plums trees.

I have 10 acres of woods, plenty of firewood. But I can’t imagine cutting up wood without a chain saw.

I imagine I could survive...but it would certainly take some major rethinking and more effort than I can imagine.

But...I come from pioneer stock and am hopeful that particular DNA would kick in.

you may want to get another rooster...and prolly will want it in a separate pen from your existing rooster.

Add a willow tree and a mimosa tree for pain, some tobacco and liquor for barter, and I think you're good. ;)

I was happy to see that I passed the "things to have" test.

You would be surprise how easy it is to cut logs with a bow or buck-saw, especially if you have someone on each end.

People around here freaked out last week when the MWRA(Boston area) water was unavailable for a couple days for drinking purposes.

Many of the Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks were unable to sell coffee.

I wonder what they will do when the four horsemen actually do arrive.

A bow saw is great to have ... very fast and easy with the blade always in tension ..you don’t need to cut down the whole tree just a few branches a day...
