We've all seen the apocalypse movies, from zombies to environmental hazards if the shit hits the fan you've got to be ready. Are you? Do you have a bug-out bag put together? Do you have any skills that would help sustain you in the event of a power grid failure? Can you fish or hunt? Do you know your edibles? Can you build a fire with very little supplies?


Cool, because there's a 99% chance you'll never NEED those skills. Realistically, I just dig camping and find that working on "survival" skills is both fun and helps to balance things out a bit. I wish I had more time to go but I have been putting together a bag that I can just grab and go camping with for a few days without having to pack up every time I want to head out. I guess the skills I really need to work on are hunting (which I'll probably never do, I'm not against it in any way but I won't do it unless it's a real necessity) and identifying what's safe to eat as far as berries, roots, and mushrooms go (I've never been good at that).
