Survival and Emergency Preparedness

I have never tried a casting net. Then again where I have lived there has not really been the option to use one. I will say Gill nets are my preferred method of fishing in a survival setting. The next thing is what people tend to forget. Know how to set it. I watched that TV series Alone and not one...

Dug out the lawn mower and getting it ready, Still a foot of snow in the front and back yard.

Cleaned up the Garage.

Moved things around the house to make more room and look more like the Jones' next door.

One of the best Memes I saw recently about why Aliens don't come here. Over radio type communications. A: So you can turn off your pain receptors?

I am looking at getting another one after 15 years of not having one around. Not sure I want a lab/greyhound cross again. He was an interesting cross.
