Basic Disaster Supplies Kit

I came across  information for a basic disaster supplies kit, so I'm passing it along. Please print and start this kit. We don't know when disaster strikes.


A basic emergency supply kit could include the following recommended items:

• Water, one gallon of water per person per day for at least three days, for drinking and sanitation
• Food, at least a three-day supply of non-perishable food
• Battery-powered or hand crank radio and a NOAA Weather Radio with tone alert and extra batteries for both
• Flashlight and extra batteries
• First aid kit
• Whistle to signal for help
• Dust mask to help filter contaminated air and plastic sheeting and duct tape to shelter-in-place
• Moist towelettes, garbage bags and plastic ties for personal sanitation
• Wrench or pliers to turn off utilities
• Manual can opener for food
• Local maps
• Cell phone with chargers, inverter or solar charger

My thoughts about Ebola

My thoughts about Ebola are overwhelming.  I don't know what to say or think, pretty scary. All I can say is that its in the USA now, time to take charge.


Everyone take necessary precautions. Don't drink from someone's water bottle, cups, or share utensils. Ebola is transferred by saliva, or any other bodily fluids. Wash your hands with soap and water when using the bathroom, eating, or just wash them every chance you get.


Lets keep our country healthy for us and for our kids.

Phoenix Floods Sept 8, 2014

On Monday September 8, 2014, Phoenix, AZ was hit hard by hurricane Norbert. My thoughts about this are over-whelming. This hurricane didn't hit my little town of Somerton but I'm still sad and concerned about the people whose house where impacted. I'm here to help in any which way I can.

Happy Labor Day

Wishing everyone a very happy Labor Day. Kept busy in Phoenix this weekend. Had great barbecue at Luis Olivas house from AZ Family channel 3. Thank you!
