It has begun...

My fellow survivors, this is my final post. It has begun. I have prepared and trained all I can, I hope you have too. The following video is proof of the doom that has swept the globe. Warning it is graphic. Good luck to you all.

Log 9: Bug Out Vehicles

The last part of my bug out plan is the best part of bug out in general, pimpin' out your vehicles!

It will be very hard, if not impossible to get from point A to point B without a good, hardy, incredibly modified vehicle. Many of the your specs will be tailored to your preferences but there are four non-negotiables when prepping your wheels.

Fuel:
     Gas and other sorts of fuel are going to be scarce. It will be important for your to have a gas efficient car, tote the fuel or at least be able to soundly plot your fill up locations.

I am going to utilize the first two. My car will be modded to run on vegetable oil and I will tote extra along with me.

Speed:
      Your car needs to be at least faster than the trail of undead. That's a given.

Fortification:
      You are going to need a car that can withstand more than a punch through the windshield and be able to take some hardcore zombie hit and runs.

I am talking steel extended push bars and siding, bullet proof glass and of course, working seat belts.


Cargo Space
       You are going to need to tote your supplies and party. Make sure you have room for both.


I have put quite a bit of love, time and work into my car. It should look something like this any day now.

 Well my fellow survivors this is it. I have prepped as much as humanly possible. All there is left to do is to maintain preparation and wait. . .

Log 8: Bug Out Check List

So I have spent the last little while stocking up to supply our Bug Out Bags (B.O.B). I found a great check list but thought it lacked a little. Here is my revised packing list:

• Enough food and water to last for seventy two hours. This includes:
  • 1 gallon of water.
  • Non-perishable food^.
  • water purification supplies.
  • Cooking supplies^.
  • Cutlery and cups/dishes.
• A first aid kit^.
• Fire starting tool (steel and flint, matches, lighter
• A disaster plan (location of emergency centers, rallying points, possible evacuation routes).
• Professional emergency literature explaining what to do in various types of disaster, studied and understood before the actual disaster but kept for reference.
• Maps and travel information
• Standard camping equipment, including sanitation supplies
• Weather appropriate clothing(with one set of clothing for opposite weather)
• Bedding items such as sleeping bags & blankets.
• Enough medicine to last an extended evacuation period.
• Pet, child and elderly care needs
• Battery or crank(preferred) operated Radio
• Lighting (battery or crank operated flashlight, glow sticks).
• Firearms and appropriate ammunition.
• Crowbar (weapon, building and vehicle entry, etc.)
• Cash and change (just in case)
• Fixed-blade and folding knife.

Of course, you may need to rotates supplies to other members if the backpack is to cumbersome for some individuals. For example, if their back pack looks like this:

  you might want to divvy up some of that stuff!

This weeks homework: Pack your bags!!
