Just thought I share with you what my brother in law has done to get better prepared.
It all started a while back when he said he's coming to my place if things get bad. I said you'd better come prepared because I'm not going to see my kids not have food because he wasn't prepared. At first he got alittle upset, then I sent him some email lists.
Over the weekend he showed me what he's done, and he is now welcome to show up at my place in a major event. He has six totes of gear and other stuff that would make his showing up at my place a minor issue. He also has a unique job and would be a plus to have.
His biggest purchase was a new full sized SUV that can easily bring his critical gear and loading it would go quickly. He also have about 6 duffle bags he'd use for soft stuff to force into corners and stuff. For Chirstmas he got a soft top storage unit to tie down on the top of his truck for other gear.
Overall, I'm impressed. You can teach an old dog new tricks.
