"Being Prepared for ANYTHING..."
August 31st, 2009
Here's a headline that I'm sitting here looking at:
"Raging Wildfire Threatens to Engulf 12,000 Homes Near Los Angeles."
As armed citizens, I don't think that our being prepared is limited to going armed. Mine sure isn't. I strive to be prepared for as many situations and scenarios as is practical.
Fortunately, I don't live in an area prone to wild fires- things are pretty darn green and wet here.
BUT- there are still plenty of opportunities for disasters, both man-made and natural.
My heart goes out to anybody whose lives are being effected by these fires, and to the fire-fighting sheepdogs who are courageous enough to fight them.
Be prepared, friend. When you get a call to work that says "You cannot return home.. the area is being evacuated", the items that you have in your car, or stored elsewhere are going to suddenly become MUCH more valuable to you.
More on this topic later...
