Welcome

Welcome to the Perpetual Preparedness blog!

My goal is to provide daily tips for survival and preparedness. Topics will include outdoor survival, home sheltering, food storage, water storage, emergency cooking, financial planning for disasters, mental preparation, the value of emergency drills, and much more.

As with any advice blog, the recommendations will be tailored for the average reader and should be adjusted to fit your personal circumstances. For example, solar ovens may be great for Arizona residents but not so reliable in Washington state. Local laws may limit the stockpiling of fuel or the use of butane tanks.

While I hope each daily tip will be factual and useful, errors may occur. Use at your own risk! Even when a tip is accurate it might still fail due to random chance. For example, it is good advice to shelter from tornado winds in a basement away from windows. But if heavy furniture crashes through the floor above, you may be killed by gravity instead of wind or flying debris.

By definition a disaster means chaotic and unpredictable conditions! I hope this blog will teach you common sense ideas and mental preparation that will prevent panic and provide you with some sound guidance to get through emergencies.
