Wolphene, what you wrote sounds exactly like what i’m experiencing too. From the wildfires, unemployment, meth problem, the hermit attitude, being armed and added to that is our governor of the state declaring this state is a sanctuary one. Yuk! Therefore we have more than our share of illegals added into the mix. I am a senior citizen (although my mind & attitude doesn’t think so) living alone and the only people knowing of my prepper cache is my daughter & grandson. My daughter & grandson are not prepping in any way, they are barely scrapping by, but they also know that they, and they alone, are welcome here just in case. I am aware of my surroundings & people every time I walkout of my door. I, too feel alone in this. I’m portraying the image of another ol’ gramma barely getting by just as you are. Keep up the good work, as I will do too.
