I finally signed up after being a long time lurker; mainly the bug out gear section deals.
Being in California (Contra Costa County) with earthquakes has really opened my eyes to disaster recovery and figuring out planning needs. During our last power outage I was the one ready with flashlights and storm candles. I know that we could survive two to three weeks cut off from everything, but would like to figure out a plan for bugging out permanently (without moving to Idaho 
) if need be as well as obtaining survival skills.Also, I'm into triathlon if anyone has interest. I like talking diet and exercise and mile times and finding out what works for others.
thanks
