Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowly relaunching it with all the old content, and writing new content. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepping, and recently started again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. Prepper is now Mrs. Prepper, and there’s the addition of Baby Prepper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learning from scratch…
One Hour Meltdown and More. Thanks Survival Mom.
Thanks for scaring me to death… Not really… Back in January of 2010 The SurvivalMom published a post on “The One-Hour Meltdown.” I actually came across this last week for the first time. Not sure how I missed it, but, in trolling her blog, it popped up. She’s…
Kydex Sheath Information

My “Get Home Bag” Replacement Contents.
Well, as many of you know, about a week ago or so my “Get Home Bag” from my truck was stolen from the parking lot where I had been parking my car for two plus years. In hind sight, I think it was my fault for assuming that there was ample security. Rather, I became…
Update On My Friend “Who Lost Everything” and Checked Into a Shelter
So, it’s been several weeks since I wrote a post about my friend who lost everything and is basically starting over from the negative. Today while at a conference in NYC, I had the opportunity to jump in a cab and go visit him. Three weeks ago he took a commission…
Lone Wolf or Survivalist Group?
