Common Sense #Prepping. 🪓

1. Learn to stock, eat out of, rotate, and maintain a deep pantry and space freezer. Stock high end camping rations in storage for stretching supply in emergencies.

2. Keep 30 days of fresh water and a water filtration kit for fetching and filtering water from nearby. Source locations in good times.

3. Keep a steel rocket stove, hatchet, and some kit to fetch wood from nearby. Ensure hardy cookware to use on top. Keep kindling on hand.

4. Obtain and use a large lithium battery bank with solar panels for camping but also in an emergency. Learn to run your space freezer and fridge off of it. Get bad and disting fan to keep things cool. Get a lithium motor bike that can be loaded in a truck.

5. Do an area study of your location. Print a map and mark key areas. Determine a bail out location that you can use periodically. A campsite is a great idea, or a cabin. Vacation there. Plan routes. Get your bail out bags setup in the garage.

6. Practice firearm proficiency. EDC a carry gun. Go to the range. Build a battle belt. Learn to clean, maintain, etc. Involve the family.

7. Build med kits at home. Treat your own cuts. Animal bites. Stock meds for infections (ivermectin, fenben, doxycycline, itraconazole, CDS, methylene blue). Become like a little family practice and improve over the years.

8. Avoid the prepping scene. It's an entire industry designed to scare you and waste your time and money. Think wholesome capable boy scout culture, not freaked out conservative gun guy.

These are all common sense, highly useful things that can be leveraged in good times and bad developed in waves over years.

#RulesForReset

One to add: get comfortable with cold showers but also get a stainless steel camp shower that can be heated on a camp stove and pump pressurized. Nothing lifts spirits in hard times like a warm shower.

Oh and bonus points for a composting toilet. Think of all the things that enter and exit your home and find manual replacements/augmentation.
