Yeah, you would be insane to bug out unless someone dropped a nuke on your doorstep!
You will still have the zombies coming - even the most idiotic of them know that food comes from farms - but it sounds like you have a solid base to work with, and, as engineers, you will be a valuable asset to the community.
Lay in a couple of drums of lime if you don’t have any limestone kicking about - it is useful for all sorts of things, but especially for sanitizing graves.
Thinking ahead, it might be worth looking at choke points on the various roads since you are not too far from the city. A couple of dropped trees in strategic locations will certainly slow down any incursions.
Plan for the worst and hope for the best!
I’ve thought of the trees, we have hundreds of mature trees on our property. Several would deter traffic. :)
I think mostly we’re good to go. Thanks for all your additional info. You’ve reassured me. We’re on the right track. I guess sometimes you need that extra ‘you’re on the right track’
That and my son-in-laws with all their weapon training, we’re good to go.

Until the gas runs out, ATVs will be the most challenging to stop.
We’ve also planned where trip wires will be strung and what area will be booby-trapped.
