Things I have learned to take over the years when going remote in my 4 wheel drive truck

Mostly I like going remote around Mt. Shasta in the Spring Summer or Fall depending upon the weather that year.

But here are the things I find useful to take that I mostly learned the Hard way that I need them.

First of all, often if you are going remote there is no cell service (AT ALL) so if you don't have a Forest Service Map of that area and you get lost, Good Luck!

Second I try to take with me a down or other really warms sleeping bag at least one that my wife and I coudl share and survive in an emergency overnight if we were stuck overnight somewhere in the Bush.

Third I like to always have a BIC lighter in the Glove Compartment. Why a Bic Lighter and not matches?

Matches can get wet unless you have one of those screw top things that are usually metal that sometimes can keep your matches dry in the rain. So, a Bic or other lighter you trust for lighting a fire to stay warm so you don't die wherever you are in the bush is a good idea.

next, I carry a 12 volt (because my 4 wheel drive is 12 volt) Air compressor I can plug into a lighter in my truck (or it could have a USB connection if you have USB ports in your car or truck).

Next, I bought a 12 ton hydraulic jack. Why?

Because I found out that the stock jack that they gave me for my Tundra didn't work in an emergency when I needed it too one time.

Also, I like to have a hatchet that I have along for cutting some wood for a fire if I need a fire to survive in the bush in an emergency.

Also, it's a nice idea to have a spare pair of clothes and even a spare jacket or wool hat for emergencies too. Especially if you are someone with you falls down in a lake or stream and gets wet 50 or 100 miles from the nearest person while you are 4 wheeling on a dirt or rock road somewhere.

These plus any food or water you want along are some of the basic things you need to survive in the wilderness in your truck or car in a real emergency.

Because if you don't have cell service then no one is going to rescue you unless you have a Iphone 14 or newer smart phone which can act like a Satellite phone on 911 in an emergency. I think all the newer ones like the 15 and 16 are also like this I believe but it would be worth checking because I don't know for sure at this point. 

However, if you get lost away from your vehicle you might still not survive then either. So, then you need to take some of this stuff with with you in case you get lost away from your vehicle and cannot get back to it within 12 or 24 hours time in an emergency.

I have spent a lot of time in the Bush various places on earth for 76 years now so I know what I'm talking about regarding surviving anything in the Bush anywhere on earth. If you aren't prepared for literally anything then you will not survive Anything when it happens. So, Be Prepared for everything if possible in your life.

Good Luck!

Rain and snow and 44 degrees Fahrenheit high for tomorrow in Lake Tahoe

with a low of 22 degrees tomorrow night Monday. So, summer and even Indian Summer all over the state is pretty much gone at least for now.

Fort Repose is based upon the real city of Mount Dora, Florida around 35 miles NW of Orlando

Where is Fort Repose, Florida?
The novel deals with the effects of a nuclear war on the fictional small town of Fort Repose, Florida, which is based upon the actual city of Mount Dora, Florida, approximately 35 miles northwest of Orlando, Florida.

Alas, Babylon 1959: read this when I was 12 to 14 years old and it scared the S--- out of me

I think reading this book and contemplating this book made me go forward in time to where the end of civilization occurred on the first timeline of September 11th 2001. So, because of reading this book and it firing up my intuition senses I realized I had to go try to get "God" in the Center of the Galaxy to help us not blow up Earth. So, in 1970 I tried to go there after Archangel Gabriel and God gave me the ability to Soul Travel. I used the Bi-location method to do this because you are less likely to die doing this than Astral projection where you might lose contact with your body through Astral projection which God taught me about the first time I walked outside of my body near Yucca Valley also around 1970 at my father's best friend's vacation house in the desert there while I was all alone there one night. Pretty Scary stuff because I wasn't trying to Astral project and I was sick at the time. So, when my arm went through the wall of the bathroom there alone in the desert I was pretty freaked out not realizing I was out of my body walking around.

Anyway, this book likely indirectly gave me the idea that I needed to find a way to save mankind from the end of civilization which actually happened on the first timeline before we built this 2nd one we all now live on. ON the first timeline civilization ended from September 11th 2001 until around 6000 AD. Every vestige of civilization was gone except for books and CDs and DVD's. DVD's were invented in 1995 by the way. But, all magnetic media was gone from huge EMPS all over the earth which permanently fried everything electrical above about 10 feet underground then on the first timeline. So, everything like hard drives and magnetic tapes were all gone from all mainframes and all computers and laptops and cell phones then above 10 feet underground. Cars didn't work either and no electrical generators worked and trucks didn't work either (unless they were military trucks and there were military people alive to drive them that had been modified to withstand EMPs) Electromagnetic pulses from nukes.

Alas, BabylonFull Book Summary

Summary Alas, BabylonFull Book Summary

At the height of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, Mark Bragg, an officer in the Air Force, warns his brother Randy that nuclear war is imminent. Mark, who lives in Omaha, sends his wife, Helen, and his children, Ben Franklin and Peyton, to live with Randy in the isolated Florida town of Fort Repose. While he waits for them to arrive, Randy warns his friends, including his neighbors, the Henrys, and his girlfriend, Lib McGovern. He begins to stockpile food, and picks up Helen and her children at the airport, as the radio reports that tensions are escalating between the two superpowers. The next morning, war breaks out, and nuclear weapons destroy all of Florida's major cities. Washington is also destroyed, and a low-level Cabinet official becomes President. Having lost all power and communication with the rest of the country, Fort Repose is completely isolated.

Disorder prevails in the small town. Randy's best friend, the local doctor Dan Gunn is beaten up by drug addicts, who ransack his clinic; the local police chief is killed; the bank president, Edgar Quisenberry, kills himself. But Randy and his friends, who all eventually come to live with him in his house on River Road, manage to survive and maintain a kind of order in their lives. Randy hooks up a supply of fresh water for his house and his neighbors, and the Henry farm provides food, as does the nearby river. Dan continues to travel around the town seeing patients, doing the best he can with limited medical supplies. A crisis occurs when he discovers that a number of people are suffering from radiation poisoning, acquired from irradiated jewelry that a man named Porky Logan brought back from near a contaminated city. Dan and Randy handle the crisis together. They collect the jewelry and bury it, along with Porky Logan's body, in a lead-lined coffin. When the townsfolk refuse to help bury the coffin, Randy brandishes a gun and forces them to do so.

Randy's authority in the town becomes more and more respected. A radio announcement declares that former Army Reserve officers are to assume responsibility for martial law in isolated areas, and Randy is a former Reserve officer, so he begins to post decrees and take responsibility for law enforcement. When a group of bandits attack and brutally beat Dan Gunn, he collects a posse and hunts them down — on the same afternoon that he and Lib are married. He and his friend kill three of the bandits and hang the other, although his neighbor, Malachai Henry, is shot and dies.

The town struggles through the summer, surviving a brief shortage of fish, and Randy solves a crisis involving a lack of salt. He combs the diary kept by his ancestor, who founded the town, and finds a reference to a nearby pool with a plentiful supply of salt. In autumn, government planes begin flying over the town, and a helicopter lands, carrying Paul Hart, a military man and friend of Randy's from before the war. He tells them that the country is still trying to restore basic services, and that centuries may pass before the contaminated regions become clean. He also confirms that Mark died in the war, meaning that Helen is free to marry Dan, with whom she has fallen in love. He offers to take them out of Fort Repose, but they all prefer to remain in the community they have rebuilt.

How can Adam or either Galactic Sentience take incarnation as human beings on earth in any time period?

Time and Space are not the natural state of the universe. Galaxies are artificial creations of Sentient beings called Creators. Their natural state does not really contain time and space.

To describe a Creator who doesn't live in galaxy is sort of describing a human without a home or house or land. They are hunter gatherers of energy sources to feed on.

So, traveling is about consciousness not about time or space. This is one reason why EnLIGHTen ment even today is NOT about time and space but rather BEING and COMPASSION more than anything else. 

Time and space really is more about GAME PLAYING sort of like the RULES of a Game beings play more than anything else.

Life is a Serious Game where you can easily die BUT it's still a game even though it is a serious one with many unknown consequences for everyone.

Imagine that a Creator encompasses all time and space but also the entire universe at the same time but the Creator encompasses the Whole Universe not as matter but as Consciousness and BEing.

IF a Being is literally everywhere and everywhen it is not a problem to be anywhere or anywhen because you are already there Literally.

The Goal of I and my friends in 1980 was to buy land, build a house and never have a mortgage

 Of course way out in the country like around Mt. Shasta you could still do this then.

What has changed the most since then?

Prices of land have gone up almost everywhere there is enough sun for solar arrays. So, as long as you now have a well or a water source land has become more expensive almost anywhere in California. And even along the coast where often it isn't useful (in the Northern Half of California) along the coast to have solar, just the beauty of the ocean everywhere along the coast with relatively low temperatures compared to the northeast of the country draws people from all over the world to live here.

So, even where solar arrays aren't practical right along the coast people still pay incredible prices for land and houses almost everywhere along the California coast.

However, in 1980 I was able to buy land (2 1/2) acres of land at 4000 feet without electricity for around 8000 dollars on the side of Mt. Shasta with a beautiful view of the mountain. Then we sold my wife's VW Camper Van and bought whatever wood we needed to begin building our A-Frame house. A house like this can shed up to over 10 feet of snow because 7 feet of snow at a time was pretty normal then in 1980 during winters there.

My father welded up from an old water pressure tank we had installed in his Yucca Valley house before he got County water for water pressure from a 1200 gallon water tank there that was raised up to around 10 feet tall for gravity feed water to water his garden and a Spartan 1946 Trailer that I had lived in in Seattle until my father built an apartment under my Grandfather's Garage on a hill in Lake Forest park then. So, I spend the first 6 months of my life in a 28 foot Spartan Trailer that has an aluminum finish like an Airstream Trailer of the same length today.

 

So, once my Dad welded up a Wood Stove after we bought windows for the house we were ready to move in and be warm through the winters there.

The basic idea was to not have a mortgage and to pay for everything up front so we ONLY had to pay Property Taxes which weren't much then. Over 5 years I figure we saved 60,000 dollars in Rent which allowed us to be able to go to Japan, India, Nepal, Thailand and Japan in 1985 and 1986 spending 4 months with our children traveling especially in India and Nepal then. And a friend from Mt. Shasta met us in Kathmandu, Nepal and traveled with us to Chitwan National Park on the Terai then where we were chased by Rhinos but survived by climbing trees.

So, not being tied to a mortgage ever was one goal and the 2nd goal was to own our own businesses so our time was more our own. So, we were then especially into an alternative lifestyle where our time was our own without having a mortgage. Maybe we had car or truck payments but that's all.

It was a good life especially from 1980 to 1985 home schooling our children through Oak Meadow school until the oldest was 12 and wanted to return to school. So, we bought another business and returned to the greater SF Bay area which was likely good for our kids but not for our marriage then. We as adults were much happier living and skiing and hiking in the mountain lakes and traveling because we could afford to because we owned our own businesses and refused to get mortgages. So, life was pretty amazing from 1980 to 1985.

My father and my friends and my wife and I built our home ourselves then.

However, because of the price of land and building materials I wonder if most people could do this today?

Also, my wife and I were 32 years old so we were in our physical prime and had enough knowledge and experience and wisdom to pull all this off. It was a great life for those 5 years! Those 5 years of success in our lives of doing exactly what we wanted to do is one reason why I'm still alive here at 76 today.

If things go haywire in the U.S. and people start dying:

 This would most likely happen between November 5th and February or March 2025 if it is going to happen.

Likely what could trigger this is misinformation by Russia or Iran or even China rather than anyone actually in the U.S.

So, be ready for a firestorm of misinformation worse than all the fake videos circulating right now already.

Also, if you are more remote away from cities (especially in the East and South) you will more likely survive what might come.

The worst places to be likely are in cities.

If you have studied how the Civil War began it began at ,Fort Sumpter South Carolina. So, it is likely that another civil war could begin in either North or South Carolina or Florida I would tend to think if it begins caused by misinformation and Conspiracy Theories put forth by China, Russia, Iran or North Korea that some less educated people believe and so get their guns out and start shooting.

However, when and if the shooting begins people likely are going to die whether it is one or hundreds or thousands depending upon how bad it might get from this misinformation from foreign countries. This misinformation likely could come through Elon Musk's X that used to be called Twitter too that could start World war III and Civil War in the U.S. 

I'm saying this as a lifelong precognitive Intuitive.

However, often when I tell people what might come they are able to create a better future than what is coming right now if left all alone and uninformed.

By God's Grace

It's sort of like if you saw a busload of kids in a school bus and you also saw a bridge out wouldn't you want to tell them that if they crossed that bridge they were all going to die?

It's exactly like this.

My intuitivefred888 site is taking off again this month with likely over 300,000 visits this October!

It's always unpredictable when your site goes Viral like mine appears to be right now. A month or so ago I had over 200,000 visits to my site and this month likely it is going beyond 300,000 visits.

I think being steady and predictable and giving people useful information about how to survive whatever is going to happen next is useful the most.
