Who here remembers all of the Covid shenanigans: Hoarding toilet paper, riots in the streets, things on fire, most preparedness online retailers sold out, canned food aisles wiped out and a nasty little word: quarantine. For what it’s worth I never got vaccinated and am somehow still here to type about it. I was still …

What’s up guys! Been traveling over the last week and quite honestly couldn’t find the time to sit down and blog, my latest article covers some of it so check it out. I must say that I flew Southwest for most of the journey but also had a 3 hour flight on United where I …

I wanted to bring back something that I used to do frequently when I first started this blog back in 2012, headline updates. Back then I did it on a daily basis and I truly don’t think that is necessary here, I think a weekly consolidation of some headlines and a few comments below each …

There I was, with a 5 gallon plastic gasoline container hoisted up on my shoulder, spout down into a funnel which was in my truck. Glug glug glug….pause, glug glug. PAINFULLY slow transfer of my storage gas to the truck, I made the decision right there that I would no longer use plastic storage containers …

I’ve been traveling but am home now, a few tasks to accomplish as the weather has definiely changed from mild to extremely cold. The only snow that we have gotten has been sporadic but in this area we are one front away from getting dumped on by the feet. A few key tasks that I …

I’ve been on the road like crazy lately, the good news is that I still try to carve out time for the blog and especially to post more updates from The Maj and his bugout journey (look for the next one this weekend). I put in 6 hours in meetings today followed by 8 hours …

I’ve been pretty busy lately but hope to get a couple reviews up early this week. I have a very nice piece of body armor which I have been very impressed with and a pretty cool multi-purpose camping light which has several variations on how you can utilize it. Maybe I’ll get one up tomorrow …

I need to clarify the title in this post in that my wife has always been on board with this whole prepping lifestyle. She initiated our garden last year and easily put in 80% of the work to make sure it yielded crops. She never questioned my prep purchases and has always supported our transition …

I hope everyone is doing well and remembered to “spring forward” 1 hour with your clocks. I woke up this morning wondering why I slept in so late and then remembered about the time change, I guess the my phone updates automatically. I believe that it is supposed to get into the 60’s this week, …

The last couple weeks have been ridiculous with temps ranging from -30 to 15 or 20 degrees. Every time I step outside I know that if I were to get dropped in the woods in these temps my likelihood of survival would be slim. Yes I have gear and know how to make a fire …

I find it quite ironic that I posted an informative article related to gardening today, this while winter storms and freezing temps grip the nation. Currently there is a nice layer of snow on the ground outside of my home with another 6 inches expected throughout the evening and into tomorrow. This combined with temps …

I just came home from Costco and picked up a Duracell 3 pack of Tactical Flashlights. The price was right at $14 for the set, this compared to $23 on Amazon (plus shipping). I’ll now be able to keep a dedicated Tac Light in each of my vehicles, this in addition to lights placed in …

I should apologize for the lack of articles this week but it’s something I just can’t help. I spent a very busy 4 days in Chicago attending a conference, it was like being in the belly of the beast! I’m so glad to be out of that town, in my opinion the traffic was worse …
