    Well, I've been absent for a while and cannot remember when I posted here last. Built up my weapons inventory and spare parts. I have enough fuel so as to not freeze this winter. Food supplies and water are adequate and I will not have to eat the dog When SHTF after this election. I am sending absentee ballots in in Tuesday. I put two 2x4 bolts on each exterior door (inside), I have 2 CO2, 2 PKP AND 6 H2O Fire extinguishers stationed around the house.
    Restocked the BOB'S and GHBs with fresh water, new light sticks, new millennium bars, new batteries.

    Today: Cut grass (exercise, push mower)
    Avoiding caffeine drinks (mostly soda, drinking more water, some tea: health)
    Washing about 1K pieces of 223 rang pickup brass, hope to resize some of it today
    -I have about 4K all together in various stages of case prep, about 500 pieces of
    -223 brass that is primed and ready to load stored in an ammo can (prevent moisture
    -from getting to the primers. I try to store my primers in an ammo can also

    Tomorrow (Labor Day Monday): I hope to go shoot about 200 rnds of ball 9mm to
    get the feel of this M&P 9.

    Picked up 250 rounds of Fioochi 9mm at $11.00 a box...I have a feeling I'm going to be shooting this month.
    Be ready now, you won't have that chance later.

    Replenished about60 gallons of sored water. This is something I do about every 8 months or so, dump the 6 gallon containers and refill, add chlorine bleach and redate the containers. Rotated some canned food stock. (Actually did this yesterday)

    I really do like that stuff. It is not as dirty as the Winchester White Box and it seems to be loaded a bit hotter. I am also partial to the S&B stuff. Those and Q4318 are what I run in my 9mm ARs.
    BTW, CTD has it for $9.94

    The garden is in full swing, beans, carrots, cucumbers, squash, peppers and now tomatoes. We picked all the pears and apples. Since we had so much squash we decided to pickle and can a bunch so we did a test of 16 pints and they came out great.

    Starting to rehab the planting boxes, took out the old plants and put in new compost. Prepping them for some new bush beans in the hopes of getting in one more crop. We planted too many string beans last year, this year we have planted so we have a new row coming in each week and they are manageable.

    I am going to build some new planting boxes and want to have one raspberries and the other blue berries. We have strawberries all over the yard so when we need some we just go out and look.

    I will be servicing the tractor this week. Got new tires for the truck and serviced it. Need to take out the generator to check its status.

    So if it is predictable and preventable then you better prepare.
