I wish for the best of futures to come, Food everyday to eat, Endless energy to keep my internet running. Gas in my Car to get me to the places I want to go to. Everything we have today and the things we will get tomorrow to make our lives just that much easier & interesting.
I do want to prepare for the worst to happen if it happens, and have fun learning while doing it.
I want to be able to help my family live through the worst of time with the smallest amount of effort.
I would like to keep this as real a possible.
How to live and survive in a world where Food Water and Shelter become the most important topic of each and everyday.
I want to learn to make steam powered cars, gun powder, mud bricks, clothes out of something softer than burlap.
To work out how to hitch up a team of horse to a RV with out an engine so I could have a type of wagon to haul my junk around.
To build a yurt style of tent to make it throughout the long winters. so I need to learn to make felt. (Up Date) * **I have Learned how to Make Felt. I am amazed on how simple it is. Not to learn to make large amounts of felt at one time.
Make a list of the most basic things that would be needed to start a small farm to grow my own food if I chose to do so.(Up Date) I have been given info on what is needed for the basics to begin a small plot garden to grow some types of food which will thrive in the AZ desert. Now to put it to practical use, more to come soon on this.
I see so much to learn, work out, and to understand, which we simply do not know how to do anymore. Our Grand & Great Grand Fathers & Mothers knew how to do because they were taught from an early age.
As for what I do not see in Survival Nation are Elves, Orcs, Faeries, Zombies, Furies, Klingon's or any kind of fantasy type character. They are not a real part of the world today. To Be Completely Honestly I think if I seen one in a future like what we are talking about here, I wold most like shoot it and start a cook fire for dinner. I am a realist in some of the worst ways.
These are just some of the thoughts I have about what could be done in the Survival Nation to plan for the that possible kind of future, but not necessarily the way it has to be.
So What are your thoughts on the idea?
