Learning From the Pioneers

<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1319 scissors-resample" title="1844_1877_1" src="/images/uploads/2009/02/1844_1877_1.jpg" alt="1844_1877_1" width="304" height="211" />Many know that Utah was originally settled by Mormon Pioneers, I'm a descendant of those pioneers from 8 different family lines on my Mother's side.  The Mormon Pioneers crossed the plains from Missouri to Utah in covered wagons, handcarts and many on foot.  Most of them buried family and loved ones under a pile of rocks on their way here.  It was a harrowing experience the like of which will hopefully never be repeated.

Emergency home heat
Personal Preparedness Reviews

Emergency home heat

My next preparation project was obtaining an emergency heat source. This is a purchase that I have been researching and planning for a quite a while now, wanting to make sure that I had adequately weighed options and made the best choice. There are a lot of factors to consider including the size and shape of the ares you want to heat, portability, direct verse ambient heat, ease of use, safety, ventilation, and fuel source.

SOS Sportster Solar Oven

I ordered a Solar Oven Society Sportster Oven with optional reflectors on a Monday and it arrived on my door step a precisely one week later. My neighbor has a Global Sun Oven, but hasn't used it. Not having any experience with this subject, and not knowing anyone who had used one, I performed some research online.

Backing up your computer and preserving your files
TEOTWAWKI Survival

Backing up your computer and preserving your files

The fantastic <a href="http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/">Food Storage Made Easy</a> blog has a great post out on how to set up a regular backup process for your computer. They recommend using my favorite backup company, Mozy - a Utah based company that was started by a friend of mine and was acquired about a year ago. <a href="http://foodstoragemadeeasy.net/2009/01/12/mozys-biggest-fan/">Check out their post here.</a> If you don't yet have a backup plan setup, I highly recommend reading their post and following their advice!

Vision Prep - storing eyeglasses

<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-903" title="nerdyguy02" src="/images/uploads/2009/01/nerdyguy02.jpg" alt="nerdyguy02" width="154" height="154" />If you're like me and can't quite make out that big E on the eye chart from 5 feet away without vision correction or even if you're not quite that bad, this post is for you. Probably everyone that wears vision correction has thought about having a backup, but what about 5 backups? One backup is great for if you break or lose your glasses/contacts, that's a great prep to have. But what if we're in a TEOTWAWKI situation and you can't get new glasses at all for a very long time? It costs a lot to get replacement glasses and it's a huge investment - usually - now enter <a href="http://www.zennioptical.com/cart/home.php">Zenni Optical</a>.
