Living in your car..........

This sounds funny.....

We live in a marina and during the winter months
we always keep a fueled vehicle with working heat
and a radio on the property.

It has been a wise thing to do in the past.
Floods during winter temps, power outages and
high winds have left us sleeping in the car.

If you are a big guy like me I only have one word for
you CADILLAC.

So let me tell you this.

In 10 minutes during an ice storm in the middle of winter.
I can turn my wife's caddy into a warm safe place,
complete with 110 power, TV, Computer, food, heat,
blankets and tools. I can move this shelter to any place that
is advantageous to the situation at hand.

"Do you have a plan like this????"


Next week on this F#$%#$* Old House. We will explain how
to survive subzero temps outdoors.
A small tent city and a fire barrel in the winter is a real way to
find out what people are made of.

"Most of them will surprise you in a good way"

What would you do ???????

If the electric was out......
The heat was out.......
The water was out........
The grocery was empty......
The fuel was gone........

I am not a doom and gloom nut.
To me this is just Monday.......

I am going to invite a friend to write on this blog.

If he agrees we will get some good info
If not, his opinion is wear comfortable shoes to
the soup line.

The fact is :
Most people would not make it one week.
If you don't get killed for your money or your
car. You will let your emotional state get the better
of you.

"You really can built a shelter out of three
piece suits"

No mortgage {lol}

Anybody starting to think ???????????

About
Putting up some food and firewood in case
this country starts to get crazier..........

We will stay on this topic.

What's coming and what to do.

Feel free to comment and we will share some ideas.

Water, food and shelter may become more important to
you than they already are.

It just looks gloomy out there, if you are prepared you
will fair very well.
