    Not really a prepper but we do live by the seasons. The spring, summer, and fall are spent prepping for winter. We put up enough food, fuel, and supplies to carry us through till spring. It's definitely a certain lifestyle.

    Right now ... i'm busy getting the firewood put up before the cold weather sets in. The goal is to have seven to eight cord in storage before the end of October. Come hell or high water at least we will be warm this winter.



    We have three different generators so the power supply is adequately covered.

    We're using up the last of the food in the pantry & freezers. It will be time to shop the store sales pretty soon.

    Have had at least 1700 rounds on hand at any given time for the last fifteen years. Firearms have been test fired and cleaned.

    Don't have anything on hand for PM's. ( We got our life savings wiped out when the recession hit back in 2007 ) I guess the ammo, canned foods, or cases of TP could be used for barter & trade if things ever did go completely sideways. We're not really planning on that happening all of a sudden though. The harsh winters here are a more immediate concern.
