RE: Murdered US spy found alive 50 years after his death. The final chapter in my father's story?
I would love to read more about your father! If you do write it please drop me a message.
Thank you for your thoughts. I cannot deny that I still love him very much and will forever remain grateful for the 'money does not equal happiness' lesson which I learned at a very early age watching him always wishing for more, unable to fully appreciate the perfection of what he had. It led me to write a manifeso at the age of 13 in the back of a maths book describing an off beat community which would function without money. Further to this I was free from a young age of the idea that governments care about us.
So whether I make the film or not the story of his life was always destined to be a part of my children's education.
I just want to be clear with my motivation and energy behind such a huge project. This way I will be able to accurately judge it against the more recent (and very powerful) energy which tells me self sufficiency should be the primary goal for my family and I as we approach this critical time in human history.
I strongly agree with your last sentence

I have been reading - and telling everyone I care about of what is coming, but nobody seemed to believe me.
Well, as per the post I am showing you, it is starting to happen. Please take it to heart and stock up as fast as you can.

Hello! Yes, I follow both @adapt2030 and @iceagefarmer here and on YouTube. Together they provide solid info on where we are at and how to prepare.
I discovered this week how I intend to build our future home ;)

I downloaded the pdf, though it is not likely I will build any house. Building time would probably take up the balance of time I have left to live, so I'll have to do with whatever I can have.
However, you are younger and have children, so I am glad you are moving ahead on providing a haven for the troubled future.
I would suggest that you get a bulldozer and dig out an area large enough (as a 'safe' room) for 5 people to sleep, eat and with a bathroom. It must be your safe room which means you should always keep food enough to last you xxx period (I would go for 30 days at least).
You speak of farms closing and food shortages, but you do not seem to be keeping in mind that people only remain civilized while they have the basics. Not having food is a basic disaster.
You also need to decide, in accord with your own beliefs, if things get that bad and you are attacked, are you willing to fight back and kill so as to save your family?
Maybe you could use a drone with a thermal camera which you only fly at night if you suspect something bad is being prepared by strangers? I would choose a hiding place where it can easily land without being seen so that you either fly it again or collect it when you know you can come out of your home.
With so many tyres used for construction, a number of extra almost buried tyres with well sealed packages could make a good storage space which intruders will not suspect. Remember, they might get it and take all you have (and you might have to show them what you have so that they do not kill you), so keep a spare storage space which can keep you alive until you can grow more food.
I had planned on buying through 2nd hand market (so that it is not registered that I have them) a couple of crossbows, with home made metal shafts/darts.
Keep your mind open and investigate all possibilities you can think of.
Hoping it all works out well for you and your family and you never need the safe room....
Here is the 1st of 2 posts, as you showed interest.

Thank you for remembering. I will read as soon as I have a peaceful moment.
Merry Christmas!
