"Hey everybody. I know I've never shared a lot of details of my plan. While I DO have one, I've never really put it down into words.
Take my BOL for example. My general plan before has been to stay at my house. It's where I'm comfortable, and where all of my supplies are. However, I recently had a better idea, and I'd like to know what y'all think.

My great-aunt has a farm a half-mile down the road from us. The driveway's around half a mile long and goes through several patches of woods, and you wouldn't really know it was back there unless you were looking for it. In total, it's around 200 acres, ringed with barbed wire around the perimeter and a farmhouse in the middle. My great-aunt (and her husband, before he died of cancer :( grow corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, soybeans, onion, etc, and have a pretty good herd of cattle (60 IIRC). There are several buildings around the farmhouse, with equipment, supplies, etc. Several creeks runs all through it, so water won't be difficult to find. Also, there are woods all throughout it, with lots of deer, squirrels, etc. It's the place where we do most of our hunting at, so I know it better than anywhere else.

My GA actually has several windmills set up to provide a little bit of power, so that should be useful. Also, there's a small gas pump for the farm vehicles. No idea how big it is, but might be helpful in a pinch. Finally, there's a large wood fireplace in the center of the house, so we should be able to have heat in the winter.

Oh, also, the land immediately around the house is clear, so we can see any threats coming. And, I feel I should mention that she likes guns :) I've seen her ride on a tractor with a Remington 870 in the cab.

Cont'd on next post.
