dissaster kit???

I have a spring fed creek that runs a cross my place, plus I backpack a little

and can filter water. So I guess you could say that my Backpacking gear is my

"Disaster" kit.

I can heat with either electric, propane Gas Logs, or wood burning stove. We had

lost power for three days during the ice storm (back in '94... I think.) so when I built

my current house I wanted to make sure we had alternate was to heat the place.

We usually keep extra can goods around and frozen stuff as well. My Deep freeze

can last two days if it's not opened too much. Plus I have access to a couple of generators.

44M, if you're so sure that "Big Brother" keeps records, then why are you even concerned about registering or not registering your weapons? Seems to me it would be a moot point if "Big Brother" really did this. You should probably lay off the conspiracy theory magazines for a little while.

Tornado pack is at the ready-- Backpack w/flashlight, radios, knife, 100 rds extra ammo, enough cash, underwear, rain gear. And I'll grab some MREs on the way out. My wife and I each have a glock to go with our backpacks.

10 extra gallons of gas in 2 Jerry cans. Our travel car gets 40 mpg- we can drive about 800 miles without stopping at a gas station if we need to.

My wife grew up in New Orleans. She used to like to visit there but she won't go back since Katrina-- freaked her out to see her old 'hood underwater.

So now we live prepared for tornadoes or "the big one" -- the New Madrid earthquake that will eventually occur in the midsouth.
