Not far from you at all. I think Greensburg would have been rebuilt by now. They keep going through mayors there because of this "green" town mess. If they would have allowed the private business to come in and build it rather than having FEMA oversee it all, I am sure that things would be so much smoother.<br /><br />Hi Jim!!! :DPhelanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250080326099834661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-21574970861646031492011-08-30T01:38:54.861-05:002011-08-30T01:38:54.861-05:00Yay!

I do wonder how much further along they would be if they had been left to their own devices.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06530748998376076224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-77810016844557610322011-08-29T13:14:44.810-05:002011-08-29T13:14:44.810-05:00Amen Judy!

Tuna in foil pouches small snack packs of tuna,little sandwich fixings and always peanut butter and lots of water.The list can go on and on. But how many will listen if they are never a victim of any disaster so far. When and if they get hit they will be so unprepared. Oh well we can only hope that more will listen and take action.<br />I will join you for a cup my friend.JoJonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-4056829269931314602011-08-29T08:34:25.115-05:002011-08-29T08:34:25.115-05:00I've had bug out bags my whole life.

Later in my scouting years it was called a back pack and now its called a bug out bag. I'm sure the PTB will take credit for this but who cares if people just do it.
