I about died laughing reading this post. And now I’m thinking. This is a great idea. I would love my ward to try this. You don’t happen to have a copy of the original trial letter do you? Or have a lead for me to get a hold of one? I’ll be sure to let you know how it goes. I live in AZ and we don’t have rain, but I could be stuck in a tent that’s 1000 degrees inside with no water and small bored children. Hmmm. Maybe I’d better rethink this.

[...] on top of that? Well, that just seems like too much for some people. I came across this blog entry yesterday about a young mother who DID practice her emergency plan. Not only is it amusing, but [...]

Thanks for an amusing and informative article. I noticed several of your audience are looking for a good list of items to be in an emergency kit. So here’s a blatant plug – our website, http://www.axcesspoints.com, includes a tool that calculates specifically for you based on the composition of your household, what you should have. And you can track your rotation dates, get reminders to purchase items, and even, sign up for a family drill. Best of all, it’s free for 30 days with no credit card needed. Check it out.

This is now my life motto: “Don’t put off procrastinating till the last possible second. Procrastinate right away so you can get down to business before it’s too late.”

Let me wipe my eyes first. Oh, and I had a bathroom emergency thanks to your little emergency recap.

But seriously, excellent post, it’s really about being over all ready. I wouldn’t want to be caught unprepared.
I have learned something as well, thanks DYM!

PS. If they did this in my stake, I know I’d fail miserably.

What a great post! Makes me want to “imagine through” the volcano scenario in SW Washington where we live, and where it rains ash at times. I’m passing this on to our congregation’s preparedness chairperson. I’m sure many others will enjoy your adventures and learn something as well! Thanks for sharing!

Great story! And really good info on disaster preparedness. It can happen any time and usually without warning. That’s the point of being ready! We were hit by a nasty tornado in March, which was followed shortly thereafter by a blizzard if you can believe it, had no power for weeks, our car was crushed under what had once been our garage so we didn’t even have transport, and we were totally unprepared. My husband shivered through with no radio or cell phone, determined to “man the house”. My son and I were lucky enough to vacate and stay with friends. Next year we’ll be ready.

Hey Daring One,

That post cracked me up!
I just have to say that you are welcome to move next door, however, you should know that I don’t have any peanut free chicken fricasee (what is chicken fricasee) or Twister.
If it makes you feel any better, there was plenty added to my to-do and to-buy lists during and after that drill.
Way to go on sticking it out. You learn such much more by actually doing than even just thinking it through!
