  • Yeah, my wife is in denial, so I have been preparing the property and our lifestyle bit by bit as long as we’ve been in this location, I do it everywhere I live. She knows I’m concerned but she doesn’t understand the scale and severity of what’s coming. She also thought I was nuts when I prepped for Covid when I read about it far before it was being talked about around the coolers… she told me she thought I was nuts and then found great relief when she noticed everyone starting to panic. It’ll be the same again, she’ll come around. Just wish everyone would take it seriously and slowly prepare so we have communities in place already, and not just panicking competitors.




  • I lived there in the late 90s and early 2000s, dated the daughter of one of the engineers that helped design, build, and maintain the levies and pumps that kept it from being unlivable. He said back then that it was going to fail in years, not likely decades, and that climate issues aside he wouldn’t want to stay if he was young. That was a major reason I left. That and the constant floods and crazy amount of drugs/alcohol. At some point it just became a bad idea for me to stay, and that point was 9/11. When I was getting used to lockdowns where we all armed ourselves because of fears houses would get looted, I knew I wanted a more normal life.
