Today I had to figure with the change of seasons coming and the cooler weather It has to be time to revamp our GO Bags. We do planning on sheltering in place for most things but I can see a few reasons to have to move,These bug outs will require some thought as Cheryl cant carry a back pack. Im thinking maybe two large rubbermaids on wheels, or even two large basic airline type suitcases.  Mayby a smaller pack already set up and in the van in case something happens on the road and I need to walk home.

 

Each Kit will contian a basics of change of clothes appropriate for the season, hygene items, three days non perishable food, preferably that you can eat cold, 2 two liter bottles of water, rain gear, Rx medicine, first aid items, cash and change, (yup we have a lot of that floating around) Scriptures. batteries for the radio and flashlights. (dont keep the batteries in these items incase of leakage) and important family documents. Some of them could be on a disk or usb flash drive. Don't forget plastic garbage bags. Maybe a family walkie talkie for each set or person set on a predetermined channel. More items as I think of it. Our kits are always evolving.  

 

Make a plan. Plan how to evacute. Plan where to meet up. Plan who is to do what and go over it until every one knows there duties. Plan who takes care of who. Ultimatly as adults were responsible for the children but even older children can and should help where appropriate..
