Hi guys. I'm new to this page and I'm totally diggin it. Here's my situation. I live in a typical suburb, close houses, small yards. My house is 2 stories and solid brick/block from basement to roof. My first dilema was barring the windows. I'm trying to think of something that can be reasonably quick to install, possibly from the inside. Recently, I installed some glass block windows in the basement window wells. Things are extremely solid, although a few hours/days of pounding can break just about anything. My plan for them was to bury them in dirt so they are invisible to the Z eyes. Thoughts?
I have a good sized brick patio in the back yard that I could use to brick the windows on the first floor, but I'd like some ideas for faster install if I need to move quickly. Plus, mortar can take forever and I'd need to keep a ton on hand. I have a finished basement with access to an abundance of 2x4 studs for supplies. Tons of nails and hammers. Still....slow. Putting iron bars is against the rules...wife :) My plan: Bar up the first floor doors and windows somehow and wait the first few days/weeks. Keep myself, wife, baby safe and most importantly, quiet. Food/water/ammunition is not an issue, I'm well stocked. Once things appear to settle, I'll move out of the burb into a safer location. How can I survive the first few days? |

I personally think that large stores and buildings should be avoided. Simply because Zed can't open a door and the odds are that large superstores and malls are going to be crawling with Zed if you can find a small food market with a pharmacy next door and try to hole up in there do it. simple fact is they are easier to clean out than a superstore and much easier to barricade and protect than a superstore.

Excellent places would be somewhere with lots of food and water easily accessible inside,weapons and ammo inside,and idea lookout points.A good place can be a Folgers,a Wal-Mart if the doors are barricaded,or similar place.
