Very nice to hear! Us too. Although if you live in the country, they live the “prepared” life normally.

Yes, I live in a rural area. Many are prepared and they have stepped it up over the past 2.5 years. I certainly have. I would never return to the city. I'll live in a tent under a tree somewhere before ever moving back. I'm a veteran and there are many other veterans out here. We don't do well in the cities. I don't even like going into the smaller towns. One of our favorite past times is getting together to go do some target practice. You can never have enough experience.

Yes hubby did 20 years Army. I’m thankful for obummer, really opened our eyes. Been on the farm for 10 years learning everything off grid. So incredibly hard but beyond worth it!! We now RV full Tim from military post to post. It’s really nice, most are like minded!!! Gonna travel til we can’t. Lol. We have an extra 90 gallon tank just in case🤣.

Obummer opened a lot of eyes. A nobody senator from Shitcago was elected and the first thing he did was destroy the healthcare system. It's nice being out here. It's quiet and nothing like seeing millions of stars at night. They say people are ignorant and uneducated out here. LOL They are some of the wisest people I know. It must be the commonsense factor. I only know 1 person out here who took the jab. The only reason she took it was because her son is a doctor. He recommended it to her since she was finally in remission from cancer in her leg which they amputated. Now, she has cancer in her lungs and breasts. If her son knows now, I can't imagine what he's thinking. I would be pissed. My grandfather owned 1000 acres and my dad went off to college and got his masters. He was teaching at the university and working was nearly done with his dissertation to get his PhD. He quit! LOL He went back to farming and has done it his whole life. He still living on the land. It's hard work but it's better than sitting in an office or cubicle all day every day. We have given a lot of thought to the RV thing. I'm seeing more and more RV's and the RV lots all across the state have been packed. I like to get out and go to the state parks and this is when I noticed it. It wasn't like this 3 years ago. Sure, there were some but now these places are full.

I knew about the fluoride but never thought about it this way. We don't have fluoride since were on well water like many others out here. Maybe there is a connection.

Thanks for the site. I will look into it and save it in my military bookmarks. That's cheap for one night especially if that comes with electricity, water, and sewer hook ups.

It’s crazy cheap! Presently we are Camp Pendleton literally on the beach. This is $65 a night but it’s California lol

It was the best move I ever made back in 2015. I'll never go back to the city. If you ever get a chance, get out. It's so peaceful out here. I would try to meet some people who live in the rural areas. Good to know if you ever need to escape. I have friends who will be heading this way if things go south. The more the merrier.
