What did you do today to prep?

[The Heretic]

Ordered some canning lids.

Slowly building up canning supplies. I only have something like a dozen jars. I will watch for jars/lids/etc. supplies on sale. Bimart & Walmart & Amazon have these on sale from time to time.

Not that I have anything except apples to can where I am at, but I could maybe can some meats/stews/etc.

Mostly just building up the capability for when I have an actual garden (and hopefully an orchard) to grow stuff and then can it for the winter. Also, if SHTF and I hunt for meat, it would be nice to have the option to can it for storage.

You add vodka to the stew? Ew.

Don't knock it 'till you've tried it.

I used to buy and sell Lids in high school. Oh *Wait*.

For the reason of COVID......
I'm making a list of things to buy (more of).

Aloha, Mark

Not quiet today but over the weekend on an outing, found one of my diesel electric heaters had a failure of being carbon fouled causing it to get extinguished and eventually not starting...

So, disassembly and cleaning for the first time ever, learning it was easier than I thought and afterwards, it needed some high temp running to burn out the missed deposits.

Got a good weekend of rain to test out the concept of a drying tent using one of those ice fishing tents...

People loved it. However it also turned into a sauna. Time to work out some issues and see about the 2nd generation.

After testing. I need more solar panels to run my trailer as it was needed to plug into AC to run the 12v chargers to provide the additional power that the existing solar panels did not get from the rainy weekend.
