    Hi there!
    I'm glad I stumbled on this site. I probably should have introduced myself before digging in but there's just so much good info here and helpful people.
    I'm not a prepper in that I'm not preparing for any one event. I'm just making sure my family's ready for anything. Right now I'm working to get our home as off grid as possible for where we are. I'm excited to learn and share here as we go through the process.
    Thanks for having me,
    Umi

    You are mistaken, Sir. You are a prepper. Most preppers prep for anything that can go wrong, not just one thing.
    Power, water, unrest, food shortage, banking issues, anything. Welcome.;)

    The only One Event Prep'ers are those Idiots on Doomsday Prep'ers..... The rest of us do it, because we understand Self-sufficentsy and Family.........

    UMI, don't be shy about preparing for coming events. IMO, it is just a matter of short time. If wrong it has not hurt anyone and I can eat the rotated foods while maintaining a reserve level.
