Reply #92: Wife and I ..

[sendero]

.... have been working on this for a while now. Our "kit" is more oriented to taking to our place out in the country.

Here are things we've accumulated:

20 lbs beans
20 lbs rice
10 lbs dried pasta
3 gallons cooking oil
10 lbs flour
10 lbs corn meal
5 lbs baking soda
10 lbs salt
5 lbs nonfat dry milk
2 gals vinegar
some assorted spices

5 gals bleach
2 gals ammonia
box of borax

case of TP
5 tubes toothpaste
hand soap
vaseline

bandaids
gauze
antibiotic ointment
hydrogen peroxide
first aid tape
aspirin

guns, handguns, rifles, shotgun
ammo - lots of ammo :)
a battery-less radio
CB radio
amateur transceiver

water filter
food dehydrator

full complement of hand tools. duct tape, wire, tie wraps,
all the crap us handy guys keep laying around

In the wake of current events, we're re-evaluating our
plans and stockpiles and are sure to come up with some
more items to store. It's a pain in the ass, because the
food items really have to be rotated - many will last a long
time but none will last indefinitely.

Welcome to Bush's America. 6 years ago I would have never
given this stuff a minute's thought.
