I have no intention of hunkering down in the wilderness living like stone-age man if I can at all help it. On the other hand, I have no need to drag the whole 21st century into my emergency pantry. How about a little of each? The best tool for the job at hand could be from any era.
Interesting I see that I"m a total combination. I have some modern, some pioneer and some Primitive prep choices. I also have some off the wall choices that don't quite fit. For example in the Tent section I've both a Nylon tent and the front end of a horse trailer to sleep in. For the mode of transport I've got the alternative of using horses. For lights, we have battery flash lights, Crank flash lights, Oil lamps and candles.
I'm trying to create a Modern long term setup. I don't like anyone haveing power over me and how I live. But I am working on 2 backups for everything 1 Pioneer and 1 Primitive.
I am definitely "Modern" with a touch of the other two. 10 Years ago I would have said differently, since I lived in a different environment, but now that I live in the suburbs of a city, definitely modern, with skill sets of the other two mentioned...

In some cases, I believe it really comes down to what we are willing to settle for!
ReplyDeleteI like to think I could get by with a lot less than I do now, but I hope to never have to put it to the test!
