    Batch- I like working with my hands. Welding, granite fabrication., turning wrenches and swinging a hammer. Just recently realized that if **** goes down I'm not well off. That's how I ended up here

    What do you want to learn. The fishing on that side is pretty awesome. Red tide aside.

    Let us know what you are trying to learn and what you feel are your threats and priorities.

    Batch- I am mainly concerned about hurricanes and all the joy they bring. Loss of power, flooding, no normalcy for days if not weeks. I'm torn as to prepare for shelter in place or get out. It's hard to plan when you don't know which way to go. My priorities are safety of me and my family above everything else. Property is no biggie- unless it's what we need
