Thanks Don, I read every word with interest and wish you had written more. So, it wasn't too long at all. Also, thanks for the links and references, I will incorporate them into my info bag.

I drove over to Ada yesterday and helped my son with his new room addition. He poured the slab for the basement and it measures 16x16 with an 8 feet ceiling. One corner is dedicated to a small storage area. He has a water well and a 220v generator. Cattle, sheep, goats, chickens and one mule.

Everything I prepare here will be light and easily transportable because I plan on "bugging-out" if an emergency arises.

I've seen this acroynm used in some of those survival forums: WTSHTF and know what it stands for. Like I said earlier in this thread, those folks get plum radical with all ideas and plans. If I didn't know better, I would think some of them are looking forward to some major disaster.

Thanks again Don and if you come up with anything else, please share.
