What Caught you off guard - what DIDN’T you prep for?
I think there are too many SHTF and World Ending Preppers and not nearly enough Daily Whammies Preppers…. Jumper cables in the car - as well as functioning jack and filled spare tire…. Blackout kit for home - power outages are one of most common things….
Yes, I have a get home bag. I’m a redneck - so I always have at the minimum a pocket knife and mini-multi tool in my pocket…..
So…. I gotta admit…. I was caught UNPREPARED the other day…. Annoyed beyond end actually. I went fishing with a buddy…. We launched from sandy beach - took my shoes off and was wading around…. Shoes were on back deck of the boat…. He cranked it up - took off at breakneck speed… later I realized - shoes are GONE…. Blew off the back of the boat in the middle of the lake….
No prep. No solution…. Had to go barefoot at the boat launch, then drive home…
Here’s the rub.. I keep an extra set of Dry Clothes, socks included, in my truck… Gloves and hat as well… But no extra shoes…. I guess that’s the thing with prepping - sometimes you don’t know till you know…. Adding Extra Shoes To Vehicle Prep..
So what’s your pants down prep? What didn’t you prep for???
