PING!!!!

[appalachian_dweller]

Thanks for the ping K!

Each paycheck, I spend $20 on ‘survival food’, mostly canned meats/fruits, pasta, etc.

Remember that many bulk foods like beans and such need much water and cooking fuel to prepare. For me, it’s best to stay with foods that are already cooked or require very little water or cooking time.

We are also tripling the size of our garden this year.

Many folks are starting their own stores and stockpiles. I know several people who are starting to can foods.

On self defense: PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACICE. I train weekly with a couple of friends. This is NOT target shooting, this is tactical training. We practice shooting from cover, building clearing, etc. It’s actually a lot of fun too.

For many folks, water will be the biggest problem.

Wish I had more time for these important threads, but sadly I don’t. I do pick up good advice on these threads and appreciate everyone’s input.

Thanks folks!
