As the seasonal weather barometer matches that of politics, it is time to protect the garden. The rain barrel is full. Going to build some kind of adjustable height frame with a strong tightly spaced wire that be placed over the raised beds to protect them from hail. Maybe build some wind guards for the sides of the beds. Beyond that, two to three greenhouses to battle extremes. Probably a Chinese style greenhouse, maybe a walipini, and possibly a traditional one.

It used to be currency. It can be used to cure and ferment food for storage if you have the luxury of a green place.

A dry winter could feed another smokey fire season.

Copious amounts of Windex. A clean windshield is godliness.

If you have a quiet place to chill, install some long-lasting roofing, maybe tin. Inside rain gives the walls a 90's music video feel.

Looking for an efficient woodstove, possibly with a cooking surface. Also Looking for non-petrol wood harvesting tools, such as battery (solar panel) and hand powered saws.

Games, CDs and DVDs for a post-streaming world.

With laundry machines lasting 5-8 years, it would be better than rocks at the river.

Or add a health care professional to your tribe.

People can't find doctors, I can't see it getting better soon.

Having some fine wine could get you invited to some important discussions. Knowledge is true wealth.

I can't believe I found Her and her moat. 💞

and apparently a new power block, lick my (dis)charging port Apple.

Might as well enjoy the summers with fuel-less toys.

In case marauders try to sneak around at night, and as summers get warmer - sweaty cotton tain't no good.

Having documents describing how to generate methane and biodiesel might be of value.

before the supply chain is too far gone.

I like clothes when it's cool out. Mend away.

Canada’s busiest port is cut off from the rest of the country. That shit is delicious.

With supply chains twisting up I should buy front brake pads 'n rotors, front end rebuild kit and some headlight bulbs. Several sets of wiper blades hsve already been acquired. I have 3 sets of wheels and tires, should last until I can start scavenging.

An EV would be simpler.

No need to participate in the second wave of hoarding toilet paper.

Dollars will likely have nostalgic value for awhile.

Might be able to barter for some car parts down the road.

Distant from international borders and an area with low enough population density for wild food sources. Maybe I'll hermit instead of hitting the road.

Canned dog food and non-preserved rodents don't have to be the way.

A pressure cooker can be used for canning rodent protein and lacto-fermentation can preserve plant life.

Solar panels and a battery can run a RV fridge and a vacuum sealer if you're rolling in style.

Eat well on the road, warrior.

Two edibles after the kids are at school and listen to Existential Reckoning by Puscifer for the first time.

Road pops for down The Road.

Supplies are running short and I'm not yet worried about smoke attracting attention.
