i recently been going to the grocery story every 2 months this year....i learned not having fruits and running out fresh vegetables was a big whole in my preps....i turned to farmers market in June...finding alternatives other than grocery store for food source is a must.

Great video, DIY Prepper TV! The risks of staying in the city during a disaster are real, and your tips for bugging in are super practical. Thanks for sharing such valuable information!

My husband and I will bugging in we are 67 and 70 we don’t have much choice can’t start over now. Since the big C we paid off debt and have prepped like crazy. We have the biggest home so my children and grandchildren are coming to me and we will take care of each other

Unfortunately, we all can't leave the city, so preparing would be to the utmost.

Always watching your videos. From East Texas. Thank you

Afternoon JR. Living part time in the city and out at the farm, have moved almost all I wish out to the farm where an adult grandson and my middle daughter and her family are living now. I can now be on the road and heading to the farm in less than a hour...hour and a half if I'm at work. Just my opinion, but everyone living in cities who plan on leaving, have anything you wish to take with you, have them ready to just throw into the trailer or vehicle at a moments notice. Things look like they are going to get worse. Have alternate routes and plenty of gas to refuel...get out before people know what's going on.

How did you know we had “the talk” with the grandparents? This helps refresh their memory and fill in the gaps. Grandma doesn’t want to prep or know about this stuff. She just wants to enjoy her retirement. Other grandma doesn’t want to leave her friends. WTH?

[sharmaineburnside]

Thank you for your videos. They are indeed helpful, especially when someone has no clue about how much things can change in such situations. I am so thankful to live rural, surrounded by family and friends who are of like minds, who look out for each other.

Great advice to treat water with more than just a filter.

[billy-xvzt]

i have felt very ill at ease in any city in recent years, it's a shame because we should still be living life and not just waiting for the big one, prudent preparation and awareness to ones surroundings is paramount, i am now in a much smaller town, certainly less stressful.

[samcantu]

The biggest thing to remember is not to bring the city to the small town you move to so it doesn’t become what you left.
My small town is slowly becoming like this due to everyone moving here and wanting to bring the “conveniences” of the city with them. It’s no longer a small hub town anymore.

In 2001, I worked in a major urban city. I noticed how very carefully, and politely, drivers drove home that day. All skyscrapers had to be vacated, all employers let every non-essential employee leave....even our IT staff shut down the systems before leaving themselves. No one wanted to be in an accident that day. No one raced. Sometimes, nothing unites like a common enemy. But, it is true... try to leave!

Another great video as always! Thank you🦋 I used to live in what was considered the country up until about four years ago lol. Texas is growing so fast! But I still have over a thousand acres behind me and I guess if need be I could go hide out there somewhere.
Look forward to the next video.

I remember Texas Armageddon. 4 days without electricity. 6 days without water. I utilized our camping equipment. Since then I purchased a mr. Buddy heater and my retired husband from navy had a sleeping bag.

Keep your eyes open, your mouth shut, your head down. Believe nothing of what you hear and half of what you see.

[suzannedundon]

As always, jr, great info. Thank you.

[robertcritchley]

Hi, JR. Being somewhat rural, on a small piece of land, my wife and I intend to honker down. With folks like yourself and a few others educating me/us, I figure to do fairly well.
Thank you, JR

[robertlarsen]

Hey JR! Day off for me and I’m just about motivated enough to watch the EweTube…thanks for the vid, brother.
