FEMA relocation is a chance to may have to take. I'm not ready for a preset BOL anyway, so I have time to research and decide on that one.

My main concern, today, is getting established somewhere adequate to my needs. Food production, water source, and trees being the basics. Pretty easy to find that level here in MI. It's acreage I need to determine, defensive characteristics, etc. There is no getting away from pros entirely, but being able to limit interactions as much as possible is only prudent.
