Up and Going

January 25, 2009 First Blog
Howdy to All

Thanks to Tom for getting this preppers network up and going.


I would like to start this Nebraska Preppers Network Blog Site by asking the question: What are you preparing for and by what level of priority are you getting your preps done?

I hope that participation in this blog will stimulate thoughts and garner ideas about how we can help each other of like mind to prepare and share our knowledge, skills, and resources with each other.

My interest in preparing for unseen events started almost 30 years ago when I joined the local Volunteer Fire Department and was involved in Storm Watch and Fire and Rescue operations.

I did not really respect the awesome power of severe storms until a house I was building in 1999 was blown away by a tornado and completely destroyed while I was working inside. (I ducked down the basement about ten seconds before it hit)

Then when the Y2K scare hit I decided that it was time to start making some preparations for what could happen. Even though the problems back then turned out to be minor in nature I made a conscious decision from that time on to always work on making my family safe as I could and prepare for what may come.

Just as an example of helping each other, if anybody is interested in setting aside some grain, I found a local farmer near Ashton, NE that sells organic red wheat that he raised himself for $15 a bushel. A plastic drywall bucket and a trip to his farm is all you need to lay in a supply.
