Re: purchase of silver rounds.

Prices have been dropping the past two weeks. Silver was less than $13 US per ounce late last week. Good news for purchasers!

I had to look up "silver rounds". At first I thought that you were still talking about ammo and were worried about a problem with Lycanthropes or something. shocked grin

Buy 4-5 5 gallon fuel cans and start filling them up.
Add 1-2 gallons of water to inventory each week.
If I get one cabinet job in particular, buy a .45 handgun.
Get a dehydrator to go along with my newfound gardening skills.
Keep upgrading my BOB contents as well as EDC contents.

Hoping to buy a "squeakie" shooter, looking at a Weatherby Vanguard in either .223 or .243. Will probably go with the .223, just for ammo availability. Going to prowl some of the old mountain man rendezvous sites, just to try to get a feel for the way they lived (and partied)...

National Weather Service forecasters said they expect 13 to 17 tropical storms, with seven to 10 of them becoming hurricanes.

The forecast follows that of two other leading storm experts in anticipating a busy season.

Sigh...Regrease and maintain boat trailer, repair one hurricane shutter, 20 more gallons of stabilized gas, spare parts and filters for both generators, wireless thermometers for freezers, repair spare chainsaw, more canned goods, more paper products, more bleach, more batteries...this stuff just never ends

Visited the local REI store for some inspiration. Oh, my! They should refresh most of the price tags. Almost everything is twice the online prices shipped.
