Forgot When we went to the Celebration , we stayed overnight with my cousin in NY. I had lent her my One Second after book. We stayed up half the night talking . She lives in a small town and has been canning, growing their own fruits and veggies since 09. She said that book just hit her, ACTUALLY, she said it scared her silly because it was if the author was describing her town to a T. Her DH has expanded their garden this year and they are stepping up their preps. They moved there due to his parents needing help back in 09. The ‘rents are now in an assisted living facility due to mom’s dementia and dad’s failing health but doing as good as can be. My Uncle, her dad on the other hand, is still going strong mentally AND physically at 92. Most of her sibs are right around Dad and have been helping him out regularly. She and I discussed her not being surprised if all of them show up at their place one day. In fact she told me that she had (in the back of her mind) been planning on them getting to her place should something happen. The book just spurred her to talk to them sooner.  She said she’s discussed a few things with her brothers in the last few months about getting up there.Told her she was a prepper, she just didn’t know it LOL.
