I'd love to host a show and tell for Houston/Texas area ETS members. We've set up meetings at local gun shows before but they are conductive to lighting stoves/building debris shelters/testing homemade generator systems/etc...
There are some great areas nearby wild areas that would be perfect for this sort of event. They are filled with edible plants and animals, safe water (bacteria but no chemicals) as well as the occasional dump pile to scavange materials.
Any of our Texas members interested?
