I couldn't agree more with this. One doesn't have to be a super prepper to be ahead of the game and virtually no one is prepared for "everything" that could happen. Taking small steps to ensue your families safety and health should be priority. This usually means starting to prep for weather events, as they happen the most frequent of the scenarios.
I totally agree with you that using your supplies and experiencing the environment is vital. In a crisis situation, experience is what will get you through.
A gimmick I see lots of people buy are the clip on "ever strike match" that you fill with fuel. I like to carry a good quality magnesium fire starter as a convenience item. Though I believe learning to start a fire with available items is a must have skill.
so true. I never got into those ever strike matches. Quick story. As a kid, I was in the woods all of the time. I carried my grandfather's old zippo. That thing always leaked and put burn marks from the fluid on my leg. I'm with you. Magnesium or a good fire steel. Hundreds of fires can be made from one of these. Well I do appreciate matches and a disposable lighter. Lol. Thanks for commenting. I do appreciate your support.
