30 Day Preparedness Challenge: Day 18

How aware of your surroundings are you?

There are few people that are aware of their surrounds 100% of the time & that's normal!

But today, try to be more aware of your surroundings than you've ever been. Look at people, objects, find the nearest exists, understand where the evacuations routes are, be aware of weather changes, etc.

There's so much for us to be aware of around us. Just take an extra look around today.

We'll touch base tonight about how ya did.

30 Day Preparedness Challenge: Day 17

Yesterday we talked about 3 different ways to purify water. One of the most popular ways is to boil it. But in order to boil it, you need some sort of heat source. And for the majority of us, the most effective heat source will come from fire.

Do you know 3 different ways to build a fire?

And we're not talking about just how to place the sticks a certain way, we're talking about types of tinder and any other methods you can think of.

Figure out 3 different ways to build a fire and we'll check in later tonight.

30 Day Preparedness Challenge: Day 16

Do you know three different ways to purify water?

In a bug out scenario, your water supply will run out eventually and the water that you come across probably won't be drinkable straight from the source.

Figure out 3 ways that you can practically purify water while bugging out.

We'll check in tonight to see what you came up with.

30 Day Preparedness Challenge: Day 15

When it's time to bug out, what's your main transportation method? Most of us will say our vehicles. But what happens when we can't use our vehicles? In some disasters, our vehicles will be rendered useless due to traffic jams or simply because of the type of natural disaster.

So what's your second transportation method? What's your third?

Figure out at least three different types of transportation methods.

We'll check in tonight to see what you've come up with.
