The other day, on one of the threads, I saw a reference to a manual food sealer. Did I read that right?? I've looked for the thread since then and can't seem to find it. Grrrr!!! I'm assuming...

Thank You for this information. :angel: I had a couple of questions about Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers and the article had links to both. Think I understand much better what I need and how to...

Hunter63,

THANK YOU, I currently have an iron skillet, given to me, that needs some help. Never heard of the vinegar before but I'm about to try it. It's a good skillet and will serve me well...

Thank You to everyone who has offered suggestions and recipes for the beans. I think I can do this and based on some of the suggestions this should be a very tasty experience. :clap: Thank you...

Hey, thank you for the suggestion. I will look into this. You are right, out of 40,000 varieties (I didn't know this) I should come up with at least a few that work for me.

Oh, and I like green and red peppers too. Will have to try that. Thanks!!

I will definitely give this one a try. Thanks much!!!

I know to some this may sound weird or possibly even unbelievable, but I’m one of those strange people who DO NOT care for the taste of beans. I have to be REALLY hungry to eat such things as pinto...

I hadn't thought of this - but it would definitely be worth the time and effort spent to investigate and then plan for such eventuality.Hey thanks!!!

Thank You Everyone who offered suggestions and concrete ideas here. I'm realizing I'm on the right track by planning to "bug in" but at the same time I need to be ready for anything so some plans...

That is a good idea. I hadn't thought of everything being in tiers but that would definitely make planning easier. From some of the suggestions though I'm beginning to realize I am not ready for...

Rick,

I've tried to do some of this risk assessment but this list is so much more extensive. I'm going to go through it item by item and then go from there on the SHTF supplies. Than You!!!

Thank You for the suggestions. I have supplies now but will definitely be adding to them and I want to be ready for moderately long term. I thank you for the suggestions though, it definitely gave a...

The more I read of the ideas and suggestions people have offered here the more I'm realizing I have MUCH to do before "bugging out" is a realistic possibility. So for now I think the "bugging out"...

Yes, I have the medicines covered as well as first-aid supplies. Been to the bug out location but hadn't done so with full pack. I will definitely do that. Thank you

I’m in a one-bedroom apartment in a large metro area and, therefore, I’m currently planning on “hunkering down” when SHTF. Considering that daily traffic is almost grid-lock during rush hours as it...

Wanted to say THANK YOU for your service to our country. Also, PLEASE be sure to pass on my many thanks to your Son for his service. It's thanks to people like you and your son that I get to do as...

Thank You for the welcome. Yes, Colo grows on a person. I moved away for about six years, sometime back, but missed the mountains so much that here I am to stay. Due to family circumstances my...

Thank You so much for the welcome, I appreciate it. Early this year I found myself without my "Bug Out Buddy" because of a sudden and very unexpected loss in the immediate family. The extended...

Thank You for the warm welcome!!! I look forward to learning as much as I possibly can between now and when SHTF as I firmly believe is definitely coming. Since I have two small grandchildren I...

My "Bug Out Buddy", a family member, recently passed and so now I am faced with an extended family who thinks my interest in anything survival is just a big waste of time at best, and almost hateful...

I’m disabled and retired living along the “Front Range” in Colorado. In a previous life I drove semi with my SO across country and absolutely loved the traveling and the people we met along the way....
