We are eight days away from the 2024 Presidential Selection. The outcome is all but certain. I may stir up a hornets next here, but, if Trump wins the actual impact on the United States may be far from what most think. The country is far from being able to be “turned around” or “saved.” I am a HUGE Trump supporter and certainly hope he gets in office.
Here are a couple thoughts:
- Kamala wins. People go to work the next day and many of us not particularly happy about that will talk about stolen elections and the country continuing to go down the toilet.
- Trump wins. Cities will burn. Riots in the streets. The Left will talk about stolen elections, stacking the Supreme Court, abortion being banned, and bad orange man in the White House and how the country must unite against him.
- Either one wins. The National Debt will continue to streak skyward and the US Dollar will lose value.
We are screwed either way.
Don’t get me wrong. I want Trump to win. I want a change in the American political system to gravitate towards traditional values and governmental shrinkage – including repairing the corruption and financial strife we are experiencing. I just doubt it will happen.
We’ll see.

I’m on Book 8 of the 299 Days series by Glen Tate, one of my all-time favorite book series. I “read” it using the Audible app. Audible books work well for me due to the amount of driving I do. I’ve read 299 Days several times previously, however, this time it reads differently. These times we live in and all the chaotic and frustrating events give the book a different feel.
The feel? Realistic and prophetic.

This raspberry plant was pretty much dead and I chucked it in the woods. Kass grabbed it and was determined to save it – and planted it. I figured as bad as it was it was toast. As you can see a new growth came up. Maine Prepper Girl to the rescue and we have an “extra” fruit-producing raspberry plant!

Silver continues to trend upwards as inflation robs the purchasing power of the USD the vast majority of us are paid with. I continue to work to increase investments in tangibles. I’m expecting a pullback in silver over the next few months that may provide a buying opportunity.
In the meantime funds are going to food storage, tools, fuel, and completing projects around the homestead.

Far too often minor first aid situations occur and there are no first aid supplies available. This small and inexpensive kit solves that problem.
A few years ago while Overlanding with a few friends one of the drivers cut his hand while moving a rock. Blood dripping - he searched his truck for something to clean his wound and then a band-aid. He had neither. If he had the OFFGRID Emergency First Aid Kit he would have been prepared.
The high-quality components of this kit cover a variety of needs when the unfortunate scrape, cut, abrasion, burn, or insect bite/sting occurs.
Each OFFGRID Emergency First Aid Kit will provide:
Band Aids - 6
Sting Relief - 2
Antiseptic Wipes - 3
Triple Antibiotic - 3
Burn Gel - 3
High Quality, Durable Storage Tin - 1
Product is shipped within 48 hours of order - often sooner.
The United States Postal Service sucks - please be patient as tracking is provided but often fails to update in a timely manner.
Band-aids, burn gel, triple antibiotic, and more - and a really nice tin secured with a couple of ranger bands. Awesome.
Perfect to throw in a pack, glove box, survival kit - or desk drawer.
Great gift as well!!!
FREE SHIPPING and discounts when multiple items are purchased.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!!!!
