Bought a first aid kit. One of those little packs with OTC pain meds, Benadryl, Immodium, bandaids, an ace bandage, butterflies, antibiotic creams, etc, etc--the basic stuff. AuntGoo saw it in the truck, and was happy to know that the duct-tape, papertowels, and TP could now be reserved for the "important" stuff...

Today I filled about a dozen three liter water bottles, bringing my total stash of potable water to around fifty gallons, which should be enough drinking water for the two of us for around three weeks.
My main concern is disruption of tap water supply in the event of a major earthquake. If water will still be available post shake, it likely will be nonpotable.
Reading today about the relief efforts underway in SE Asia, following their most recent quake. I would expect much the same in SoCal, on a much larger scale, when it is our turn in the barrel....
