A family member thinks I'm insane because I've got GoBags stashed at different locations (Family, friends, work) around the city. At home I've got sufficient supplies to keep the 4 of us rolling along for more than a month. While we can't prepare for every possibility, my family does have a basic gameplan in case of some emergencies.
If power and communications are lost during working hours, who goes where? Who goes for the kids? How? If we can't reach the house, where do we meet? If the whole valley is jacked, where do we go?
I know I will probably never use any of what I've prepared but I seriously doubt I'll be on my deathbed and regret having wasted time and energy on the preparations.
