How to prepare for a hurricane or other large disaster

It is the anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.  So thought it was a good time to share this wonderful source of planning and preparedness information & insight.

A blog called Listening To Katrina

Shane, the author of that blog, goes over not only how to survive the hurricane.  He also details how to prepare for life during and after the hurricane.  Mundane things like getting a job or saving wedding pictures despite hurricane, wildfire, or other disaster.

How to Freeze Food including meats

Oddly enough somtime the government does help.  Click on link below for more detailed information.  With the Politicians messing with whole economy, I have started taking food storage a bit more seriously.

"What Can You Freeze?
You can freeze almost any food. Some exceptions are canned food or eggs in shells. However, once the food (such as a ham) is out of the can, you may freeze it."~USDA

For broader information on basic food storage Provident Living which is associated with The Church of Latter Day Saints.

The American Red Cross is somewhere between the sources mentioned above.

I have found useful information from all three sources.
