Our Disaster Kits
I've posted photos on Flickr of the disaster kits that I assembled for Natalie & I. Many people would be afraid to admit to having such kits, but I think that such attitudes do nobody a service. It's important to share information about what should go into a kit.
Here's the go-bag that I keep in the trunk of my car. It's got enough water to last me at least a day, but is currently missing food items. Food is a real priority since my cognitive abilities vanish in the absence of food. I'm apt to be the "Best Equipped Idiot on Earth" if I forget to include food!
Also, here are the supplies included in the household disaster kit. These items are stored in an 18-quart plastic bin, such as the kind you might find for $5 at home stores. It's important that the container be water-resistant, portable, and sturdy.
