  1. Couples and Families to Plan and Prep together

    Just dehydrate the water. It weighs basically nothing. You can carry it in balloons. There should be Group 4 stickers for those who know. I might have to get some made
  2. Generator Thread ....When the power goes out...

    I don't recall if I posted earlier in this thread but my house has a 10kw generac with a 500 gallon in ground propane tank. I will run the whole house with no issue. I've gone to mostly led bulbs in the house to save some juice there but it has had no issues running the stove and oven and the...
  3. Affordable reliable Bug out vehicles

    If you're bugging out, hopefully you have a plan for your final or at least next destination. If it involves forest service roads, you can bet that you're not the only one with that plan and you might just be delivering a resupply to the guy ahead of you that has set up a hasty ambush. If...
  4. People bought the ground beef and ground turkey and left the cured hams

    Just remember that some of your neighbors are thinking the same thing. Its worth discussing before one takes them all out and wastes meat. Know how to build a smoker.
  5. People bought the ground beef and ground turkey and left the cured hams

    Yeah, I have a general but still would plan for long term protein
  6. People bought the ground beef and ground turkey and left the cured hams

    What gives? The wife doesn't eat pork and I dont care form ham, but if you're at risk of being hungry seems these are the best to buy for storage. Am I missing something?
  7. Gainesville, Georgia area preppers / homesteaders / or just new friends

    CERN group up in Cleveland is such a thing. If yuns are looking for modeling/structure ideas, it might be worth going to a meeting with them and seeing how it goes. They've been active for at least 12-14 years. I am/was part, but have been busy and haven't been in a while. If you're interested...
  8. Apocalyptic tools.

    I watched the video of Dick Proenneke building his cabin in Alaska with an axe, draw knife, hand saw and hand auger and mentally added them all to my collection for such an event. I have a bitchin hand saw with 3/8" teeth and a couple great axes. It's the fine detail stuff I need. The only...
  9. Just a quick update...

    congrats on the weight loss. I'm sure your knees thank you as well as the rest of your system. The mobility increase can't be overvalued. Knives looks good. Keep up the great work!
  10. What does your fitness routine look like?

    I am by no means a fitness beast, but want to point out that chores and non-sedentary activity are not fitness efforts. Case in point- early last year I start hiking my neighboring mountain for some exercise. I saw gains in my bottom to top times and then plateaued. 45 minutes and couldn't do...
  11. Weapon to survive

    I wear flip flops, so...
  12. What did we learn from Irma?

    My house is on a community well and the service company for the well has a generator for the well, so without power there is still water pressure. However, I'm planning to have my own well drilled and have it wired for power off the house/generator. Next is to replace the water heater with a...
  13. What did we learn from Irma?

    I'm still without power to the house. I have a 10kw Generac fed by a 500 gallon propane tank, but since it's cool outside, I just cut it off. It was only powering the fridge, really. I have a 750w inverter and brought a spare battery inside last night and charged the phone and back up phone...
  14. Bush craft versus survival

    In other words Bushcraft is to chocolate as survival is to candy. All candy is not chocolate, but all chocolate is candy.
  15. How many folks have started a garden this year?

    What are ya'll planting? Anyone grow broccoli? I love it, but don't know how it does around here. I guess I'm gonna have to start canning. I planted two squash last year and couldn't keep up with them. Every day I'd pick four or five, and if I missed a day, I'd have a bunch that were too...
  16. How many folks have started a garden this year?

    Good point! I've got a chance of snow apparently, but I checked temp in the green house and it's a good 15-20 degrees warmer than the outside air. I guess I'll go in there in the morning and get things ready, then head over to the feed/see store for goodies.
  17. How many folks have started a garden this year?

    Bout to. My new house has a green house. Ashamedly, I don't even know how to make use of one. I'm going to plant a few things both in the green house and in the garden spot next to it and see what difference occur. Ready for some squash, bell peppers, maybe some corn. There's six deer that...
  18. Georgia Militias

    I went to a meeting with a group once and it looked like there was promise. We did a basic rifle course, which could have gone well, except for one of the instructors, while he handled himself well enough in the class, was not an example of fitness for anything, being near 200 pounds overweight...
  19. Georgia Militias

    some PT requirements that must be met. Applicant must: Perform 12 oz. curl (Requirements: 12 reps in 45 minutes. SF qualifier 24 reps in 30 minutes) Fridge door pull (2 for 6 x12oz. weights, or 1 for 12 x12 oz. weights) Must be able to stagger in a relatively straight line for minimum of 4...
  20. Georgia Militias

    There should be a ODT militia. We could just openly wear camo, talk about guns and drink beer with no effort to train at all. Every M&G could be a meeting where dues are taken up to supply booze to the next meet.
