It seems like I'm seeing more and more people from Texas on this board. Howdy, y'all! How about a quick round of introductions? I'll start:

I'm Mark, (aka Blast, aka DH). I live on the north side of Houston. I'm closing in of 40 yrs old, but I'm hoping daily Yoga will keep me healthy. I work in the petroleum industry (please don't hate me) but spend my weekends in the woods (usually being chased by assorted critters). I grew up in the woods of Minnesota but ended up here in Texas ten years ago. I've always been big on being prepared.

My wife, Kuovonne (aka DW) also posts on this board. I've pretty much dragged her kicking and screaming into the preparedness lifestyle, but lately she's been buying into it more and more.

Next? C'mon, don't leave me standing here all alone!
