Day 28: How to live in a global shutdown...
RV’s for bug out and as a second home: Having taught preparedness and survival for many decades I get a lot of the same questions. One of the questions is what do I do in case of an earthquake? In case of a fire? In case of a war? These are completely valid questions. Sadly like most of these questions the answer is it depends. That answer though is not what anyone is looking for. So let's game this out a little bit. I live in the Wasatch Front in a two-story house. A majority of my food storage is in the basement in Cold Storage like most houses. If an earthquake comes that destroys my house there is a good probability I won't have access to that food storage. An RV in my backyard however sits on Springs or a suspension and will withstand an earthquake without issue as long as nothing falls on it. So if I am smart enough to leave water in an out building, fuel in a generator and non-perishable food in my RV I can instantly transfer my family to the RV in case of an earthquake. This is also the case if I need to bug out to a different state because of a fire or whatever else may happen. A few years back in Jasper, British Columbia, they had a massive forest fire. The majority of people in that town needed to bug out to a different location. I remember watching videos with a ton of people that grabbed their RVs and headed south. This gave them a mobile shelter with food, water and all of the things they needed to stay alive. So instead of completely sterilizing your RV for the winter consider it as a survival location backup. This doesn't mean leaving water in it and breaking the lines from freezing. It means maybe consider leaving a couple of five gallon jugs of water separate from the water tank so that if you need to grab your RV and go you have water. It means leaving some non-perishable food on the shelves. It means leave gas in the gas cans on the back. It means using shelf stable fuel in the generator. This way if something does happen and you need to go now you have an option. This way if something happens and you need a place to stay tonight you have an option. Prepper items that never get used aren't really valuable preps. Try to make sure that anything you are prepping is something that is also useful even if SHTF doesn't happen.

This obviously can’t last long so you have to ACT NOW
