...from my 6 y.o. daughter!

My daughter, pictured here,

[img]www.ar15.com/members/albums/White%5Fhorse%2FBrenna%2Ejpg[/img]

has been talking lately of her "Just in Case" bag, and has actually been taking it with her on car rides lately.  She shared the contents with me this morning and I was pleasantly suprised at her logic.  

Here is a complete list of items:

1.  Tape player w/Bambi and Mother Goose casette
2.  Pixter game
3.  Travel clock "just in case Mommy forgets her watch again."
4.  2 pairs undies
5.  1 pair socks
6.  Notepad
7.  Wet Wipes in a ziplock bag
8.  Markers, brush, pencil, hairspray in a ziplock bag
9.  Tissues
10. Roll on body glitter "in case something smells bad."

She wasn't trying to copy my B.O.B., since she had no idea I had one.  Kinda made me proud.  

So, if you haven't started your B.O.B., now is the time to start.  You wouldn't want to outclassed by a 6 y.o. would you?  [;D]

I don't have a Bug Out Bag, per se, but my old job required me to travel a bunch through rural Alabama, so I keep a bag at all times in my vehicle with the following items in it:  (mostly incase I went into a ravine, got trapped, etc.)

handheld cb radio
flashlight
firstaid kit w/sutures, tylenol, vitamins
.38 revolver w/ammo
road flare
mess kit w/fuel
an MRE, extra dry rice and beans
matches
washcloth
para cord
wool army blanket
army rain poncho
folding GI shovel
a few other small items
all in a Korean war era backpack


I figured it would provide me wih food, clothing, and shelter for about 3 days if needed.

Vinnie:

That pic was taken last year.  Trust me, she is thicker now and we can't stop her from continually eating.  Thanks for the concern.

dnra:

I knew I should steel myself against negative comments, but I think I have the mettle to stand up.

...now see what you made me do?  Want MORE pun-ishment?

Actually, I meant for her "Just in case" bag. I didn't mean to say that she looked at all "unhealthy."

Is your daughter taking after her[b] "mothers"[/b] side of the family? That is a real pretty little lady. Someone to be very proud of, as you obviously are. I envy you.

Oh yeah, water!  I have one of those new army canteens and some water purification tablets too.  The canteen is always empty though.  I should do something about that!
