    Default Further clarification

    Without getting to specific I live south of Hampden and a bit East of Sheridan in the 80236 area. Not a bad area by comparison to my travels around the metro area. Far from LODO but still far enough from the hills to make bugging out a whole lot of work with kids.
    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." -John Stewart Mill

    My answer is to stay where you are if possible. You have all your supplies already there and it's better than sitting in a traffic jam. If you bug out you'd better have a place to go otherwise the people where you go probably aren't going to be standing there with open arms.
    This idea about heading for the hills to me isn't rational if you don't have set up there. JMHO
    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.

    Agreed. My folks live up in the hills, so I have a place to go, but I would go if I didn't have a place.

    Oh dear god in heaven. The wife just finished 'One Second After'. I thought it scared me... She didn't sleep last night, and I'm currently sharing info she once thought was from the minds of the paranoid.

    Jerry, what was that site you were buying Mylar bags and O2 tablets from? What size were they too?

    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    I see it is time for the Mylar party. Here is the site. http://www.sorbentsystems.com/mylar.html

    This is the one you are looking for.

    10VF4C16
    10.0"x16.0"
    Equivalent to a #10 can. PAKVF4C
    5.0 mils- Food Grade!
    Also available in Green! 250
    50-150 @ $0.562ea


    I use the 300cc absorbers. Here is the page. http://www.sorbentsystems.com/order_O2.html

    A couple of things. 50 bags and 50 absorbers is under there $45 min and have a surcharge. Order 60 bags and it should be over.

    The absorbers can be put into a cart but not the bags you want so you go to the order form here. https://www.sorbentsystems.com/orderform.html

    and manually put in the #'s. The bags come in silver or green pick one or they come silver.

    After all this you will get one Email that says your order has been received.
    Just about the time that you are wondering what has happened to your order (4-5 days) it will show up on your doorstep. Just pointing out some quirks of ordering from them.

    Now all that said I do have plenty of bags and 50 absorbers here. If you want to start I can give ya a list of local bulk items to start with. For your first batch you would need 20 to 30 bags and 30-40 absorbers since some of the items ya might want to put away are 1/2 bag items.

    If it is any consolation I kind of went through the same thing with my wife. She did not understand what I was doing or why. A few events over a couple of years changed her mind.

    If ya have any questions drop me a PM. In addition to what you can put in mylar yourself to save $$$ you need to look here http://www.honeyvillegrain.com/ For items and also take a look at the links page. I like Honeyville because of there shipping costs.

    You opened the box and there is no going back now.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    While I think the canning class was OUTSTANDING and I'm looking forward to the Mylar class, I can't stress enough the most overlooked SHTF/TEOTWAWKI item:
