I joined, not too long ago, a preparedness meetup group in Northern NJ. There seem to be only a few of us that are regulars and show up once a month to the meeting.  There are various other members of the group that may make it depending on their...

When I worked in NYC (post 9/11), I was always wondering how I was going to store any type of gear to get me across two rivers into NJ to my apartment, so I could bug in or bug out if the SHTF and the bridges and tunnels were shut down.  I decided on, but...

I have been eying up no rinse shampoo and no rinse body bath for some time on Amazon.com.  This week I bought them and they came in… I have to tell you, I think they are going to be outstanding additions to my Bug Out Bag and for Camping.

Taken from a survival forum and copied to a word document late last year for my own review going forward: Now some people live in apartments like myself, I figured we needed a thread for suggestions for folks like myself.  I’m pretty creative and...
