To be prepared for a crisis, every Prepper must establish goals and make long-term and short-term plans. In this column, the SurvivalBlog editors review their week’s prep activities and planned prep activities for the coming week. These range from healthcare and gear purchases to gardening, ranch improvements, bug out bag fine-tuning, and food storage. This is something akin to our Retreat Owner Profiles, but written incrementally and in detail, throughout the year. We always welcome you to share your own successes and wisdom in your e-mailed letters. We post many of those –or excerpts thereof — in this column, in the Odds ‘n Sods Column, and in the Snippets column. Let’s keep busy and be ready!
Jim Reports:
We enjoyed a pleasant sunny winter day this past week for a hike with one of our daughters, and both of our half-grown pups. (“H. & K.”) We followed some lightly-packed snowmobile tracks up into the National Forest, so we didn’t have to wear our snowshoes. That was great fun. Lily will fill you in about what we saw on those hikes.
I took a day trip to Missoula, Montana, to pick up several antique rifles and some ammunition that I had bought for Elk Creek Company. I should have those all cataloged soon. They include four Ludwig Loewe Chilean contract M1895 Mausers and a scarce Swiss M1896/11 that was made in 1898.
I haven’t had to do any snowplowing for a couple of weeks, but it looks like we’ll be getting another wintery blast, next week.
Now, over to Lily.
Avalanche Lily Reports:
Dear Readers,
This week the weather was finally mostly sunny and in the mid-thirties, beautiful.
For fun, we did some wild ice skating in the meadows, and went on one hike. During that snowy hike up into the National Forest we saw tracks of deer, moose, elk, bobcat, coyote, and snowshoe hare. The sun shone gloriously bright in bluebird skies with wisps of fluffy white clouds transiting rapidly across them.
Miss Violet and I had lunch with Horsey friend this week. It had been a long time between visits with her and it was a lovely time of great food and catching up.
We went food shopping again, stocking up on meat and fresh produce.
I have read in the Book of Genesis in Hebrew up through Chapter 25. A couple of the chapters were very long, thus taking two days to translate.
The news has been very bad this past week: Soon in Canada, people will not be able to enter grocery stores without the Vaccine passport. Threats and rumors of a new plague of Ebola and Small Pox, war drums are beating in Ukraine and Taiwan. Oh, and threats of supposed right-wing extremists taking down the grid. (Yeah right! Those Evil Elite Bastards will hire one of their own to do the dirty deed and will place the blame on conservatives. Why would we be the destructive ones? Only Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy YHWH’s creation. Therefore it is those who follow Satan who will do his evil deeds, not those of us who follow Jesus and His way of peace! YHWH has a special place in Hell for those who destroy the earth. Blaming right-wingers for a grid-down outage and the refusal of taking the kill shots will bring more persecution to YHWH’s saints. Get ready. Remember YHWH said that He will recompense vengeance on those who persecute His people!
Seriously, now is the time to finalize your physical stocking up and preps and to make sure your relationship to Jesus. This is not the time to be found in the practice of any sin. Guard your hearts, mind, eyes, and ears against all that would try to distract you from YHWH’s commandments.
Friday night: I just found this out tonight. Please pray for my father. He is triple-vaxxed and had a regular physical this past week with a stress test and he failed it. They did an ultrasound and found blockages near the valves of his heart. He is supposed to have stents put in, this coming week. His name is also, Jim. So is my brother’s name. I’m surrounded by Jims.
My father is seventy-five years old. I am so upset, roaringly, ragingly, wailingly, upset at the Elites for foisting these depopulation CLOT kill shots upon the world’s population through FEAR!!! I am so sad that my father did not listen to me warning him against the vaccines in the beginning of this Plandemic. Please pray for God to be merciful to him and that God would comfort him, save him, and bring him into his kingdom and Heal him if it’s His will. He is Catholic. So has not read the Word of God on his own very much. Satan comes to kill, steal, and destroy! Are we going to let him take it all??? JESUS WILL HAVE VICTORY OVER THIS ADVERSARY! Thank You!
2Thessalonians 2:7-12
Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
May you all have a very blessed and safe week.
