My favorite clip from the classic Red Dawn movie from 1984. The truck pulls into the store and the kids run in. They gather supplies they will need to survive before heading to the mountains in an effort to escape the Russians.
I’ve always thought about how I would want to be supplied ahead of time in case of an event such as this.

 Scene – Getting Supplies Before Heading Into The Mountains){kind=link}
do not wait until something happens to get your supplies. get them NOW before it’s to late, and be ready. like JR said in previous articles, five cans a week will add up. I’ve always thought about it like having insurance.
they may not be available when a crisis hits, food and water, not to mention having to deal with the large crowds of scared, desperate people who waited until the last minute only to realize that they only had two days of food and water.– me, ill stay on the place for at least a month before venturing out, giving things time to calm down. i truly don’t need the outside world other than for our small community and conversation, that’s my plan.
take care all.
