Welcome Back!!!

[CottonBall]

This is your ping to the All Things Prepping, Simple Living, Back to the Basics [a place to come sit on the porch and chat, an on going thread]

This week's topic is

Welcome Back!! and

What do you think is the most crucial survival topic to start with?

I thought I would try to revive the old thread and hopefully do a better job of keeping it going. If anybody wants to help posting topics, you will have my undying gratitude and lots of praises.

I'm using the old ping list so if anybody wants off it just let me know.

Just finished canning my Pink Tip Greasy beans. Then I did four batches of potatoes pressure canned without water. Now I’m waiting for the dried beans I ordered to get them processed. Then it’ll be time to bring the firewood to the house. Fall is in the air!

Great thread idea, CB!

Glad to see it. I am visiting with son and granddaughter at the moment (just took a quick trip in to use the facilities lol) but will check back later.

Thanks for starting this - we’ve been doing a mess of prepping up here, north of the border!

Canned 15 pints of fresh peaches from a friends mini farm this week. Had enough left over for a lovely pie.

Around here opening a jar of summer peaches in the depths of winter is one of life’s little joys.

Thanks for the ping, CB.

Glad you have started these threads back.

Time is of the essence.

Thank you for reviving this.

We certainly need it today in light of the dumpster fire this country has become under democrat rule and with the efforts of the WEEF.

These are the kinds of things I buy to give away, it also gives you an excuse to check on someone without seeming intrusive.

Christmas is less than 100 days away.

Here is an idea for a Christmas gift for a loved one.

A Get-Home-Bag or a Bail-Out-Bag

The Get-Home-Bag can be a smaller EDC every-day carry bag, a 24 hour bag or a larger 72 hour bag.

Make the size and style appropriate for the person and their personal situation.

When I worked in a business environment I used a black laptop bag as my EDC bag.
Now I use one that is more tactical in style.
My wife’s EDC was a bag that looked like a fairly large ladies purse or catch-all.

Start with basic gear and leave room for them to fill it out with their own personal items.

Same thing with a Bail-Out-Bag.
It doesn’t have to be complete.
And you can add other item as gifts on birthdays and other occasions.
