Hurricane season begins today! I'm am big on being prepared for natural disasters. There is do much we can ahead of time to avoid any extra hardship when things happen. One thing I learned about puerto Rico is that you can loose power quickly. last summer we had a storm that knocked out power for 3 whole days. For those in the country part up to 7 days. It wasn't even a hurricane so it's important to be ready. I like to ha e a lil extra if I can just in case family or friends need anything. But I tell you nothing worse than not having a working toilet :-(
So I make sure to have a lot of candles and matches. I have a gas stove so that's works cause I can cook at all times. And we have a cistern in the back of the house that holds plenty of toilet water.
So far what I have:
6 gallons of drinking water
3 lanterns
Some candles though I need more
Gas for our grill
Flash light
Some canned food
What I need:
More candles
More canned food enough for 5 days
More gas for our stove
First aid kit
Extras:
Battery operated radio
Games :-)
Generator ?
