I am pretty much prepared all the time. I have a 10,000 gal water tank, ten 5 gal propane tanks, always have lots of toilet paper and paper towels, fifteen 18650 batteries and five flashlights that use them which on the lower settings will last 80 hours on one battery. Two refrigerators and a chest freezer with lots of food. Two generators, a Honda EU3000 and a loud one with 4800 watts which is strong enough to run the clothes dryer. Two cast iron propane stoves, a backhoe in case I have to move heavy stuff, a chipper, 35 gals of gas and 50 gals of diesel all with fuel stabilizers. Makita 18v flashlights, saws, drills and drivers and ten Makita 4 and 3 amp batteries. A .22 rifle and pistol, an AR15, a Glock 9mm and over 18,000 rounds of ammo. Lots of rope, parachute cord, zip ties up to 30 inches in length, rachet straps, plywood, 2x4s and other assorted lumber, hundreds of deck screws from 1.25 to 3.5 inches, dozens of carriage bolts from 1.5 to 4.5 inches, a roll of 25x100 ft of 6 mil plastic, duct tape and in the yard, lots of bamboo that could be used to build shelter. They range from 1 to 3 inches in diameter and 25 ft long. Six assorted chainsaws up to a Stihl MS880 with a 60 inch bar, and a Woodmizer lumber mill Chickens that give me 10 to 15 eggs a day. When you live in a remote section of Puna, you gotta be ready for worst case scenarios.
