I like the idea of preparing a written plan.
Having lived in earthquake country for more than half my life, I’ve thought through, and implemented in 1994, a survival plan. But, having not written it down, I have dropped the ball at least once. My wife does not like to ride bicycles any more and talked me into selling hers. Reading this thread I realized that that bike was one of our emergency transportation options. Had I had a written plan I would not have made that mistake. (Wait till she hears I have to buy a new bike.)
Also new things pop up all the time (especially while reading PS.com). The thread on thumb drives led me to list what information could be transferred to a Bug-Out Thumb Drive. It’s pretty impressive including scanned copies of licenses, insurance documents, and photos.
I snatched this from the Equipped to Survive site: “Prepare for the worst-case-scenario, because the worst-case-scenario is not being prepared”
