  1. If you can learn about making strategic decisions from the game of poker, you might learn a lot from this book by Annie Duke; “Decide to Play Great Poker, A Strategy Guide to No-limit Texas Hold Em”

  2. Don’t forget you still should (if possible) call the country cousins before setting out. Who knows? They might have had to make the same decision due to some event or circumstance @ their location. Or worse, they may say “no” to you.

  3. My Irish ancestors took us to preppers school a long long time ago . Around 1845 my relatives all bugged out from Ireland after the famine and the English mass slave selling . Luckily they came to America where they were treated very well by the indentured slave owners and even asked to buy the 40 acres next door so the children could intermarry . Today some 175 years later my people are ready to bug out again . It’s in the blood .

  4. So may “what if’s”

    I have about 31 cousins still alive, what if 1 of them showed up with 5 mouths to feed at my farm?

    I can think of 5 at I would accept, they would have the skills to help.

    Arriving in a motor home… unless you have a trailer of freeze dried food, why would I care?

    I have so many others I want to help, including close friends and my local church. Not sure I have much use for cousins that show up unannounced.

    1. Montana Rancher, I feel ya! I have about 25 cousins, their spouses, children and some have grandchildren. I have talked to most of them, in person, about the possibility of a disruption of services/break down of society. Most have brushed it off, and some have actually begun to prepare for their family’s safety plans. However, none of them live within an hours drive of our retreat, and NONE of them know exactly where it is. Our neighbors beside our retreat don’t even know what all we have ‘down there’ on the farm. From the road it looks like mostly a wooded area. What we do have is @90 acres, 2 ponds, a mote (canal, 4 foot deep with alligators) surrounding all but about 20 foot which is accessible from the road. We have hogs, cows, horses, chickens, and a fair deer population. We have a cook shack, a library, and an area for campers/tents. We also have about 35 invited guests, who each know that they are welcome to come, but they are responsible for their own clothing, shelter, medications & food. There are many differing skill sets amongst the group. We all have common beliefs both in religion and politics. I feel thankful and blessed!
