After a couple of months being late with my post, I decided to get really organized and have this post ready sometime during mid month. I am hoping that every one is enjoying their first day of summer. Although it is nice to enjoy the heat of the sun, in our neck of the wood, it might not be as welcomed. The fire season will be starting soon. I am sure you know that in some part of Alberta and British Columbia, they have already started. We are all hoping for more rain during the summer. I hope your area is safe and that you are taking precautions and not take this issue for granted. Just in case you don't have a ready to go bag, maybe this month, make sure you have a bag with some of the essentials just in case your area will be on Alert or maybe even evacuated. On that note, here's a short list of what you need.
- Food (ready to eat) and water
- Phone charger and battery bank
- Small battery-powered or hand-crank radio
- Battery-powered or hand-crank flashlight
- Extra batteries
- Small first-aid kit and personal medications
- Personal toiletries and items, such as an extra pair of glasses or contact lenses
- Copy of your emergency plan
- Copies of important documents, such as insurance papers and identification
- Cash in small bills
- Local map with your family meeting place identified
- Seasonal clothing and an emergency blanket
- Pen and notepad
- Whistle
