TOILET PAPER.
check on your stored water, some of those plastic jugs get brittle and fail, makes a mess.

if you have any books, art, papers, things that will be affected by humidity, be prepared to seal off a room with a small ac unit to keep them from getting moldy.

In case of unexpected situation like hurricane better if we ensure to have with us food, flashlights, whistle, batteries, some clothes, meds and mineral water. And most importantly be ready at all times in case there is unwanted happenings that might occur.

Can't really compare to the others pain, but...every time it's fucking a miserable time, before, during and after; period! Ill-prepared and all... Somebody with their infinite wisdom once grabbed an ice-chest that had sun-baked fish innards in it...that was our beer fridge. You couldn't wash that stench off the cans. lol


On a side note:
Those prepping for wharves/piers, you can't save the pilings, walls and runners..but you can use screws instead of nails, or the quick-lock systems.. it only takes one person three hours to strip the surface boards and benches on mine. Depending on insurance you might want to leave it be.

On the camping stoves. My main one is a '76 Coleman suitcase stove. For mobile situations I splurged on a highly portable Primus omni-fule burner. These kick-ass all the way, a lil' expensive but well worth the price. The Swedish have been making these since the 1800's for mt hikers. Their new ones weigh 12 ounces and can burn several fuels, hence the name. :Gasoline, diesel, liquid propane, kerosene, white gas...even aviation fuel, no shit. Hell, probably would burn JP-7 if you could ignite it.

Don't know if anyone mentioned this, but if someone in the neighborhood cooks with a gas stove. You can spend the first couple of days collectively cooking all of the thawing food out of everyone's freezer.

I will tell everyone from a survivor of hurricane Katrina. Listen to the warnings and get out of town when the message comes across. Do not think for one sec you can beat a hurricane.

Don't forget extra pet food. We always keep an extra 20 lb bag of food on hand and rotate it out. Pets gotta eat too.
