Finally got our “fire evac go box” put together 👏
We DO NOT have a fire close to us, thankfully. But I like to think if I’m prepared for the worst, it won’t actually happen. 🤞
There are many fires in Colorado right now, including one about an hour’s drive away. And the conditions here are prime …
😳 Hot and windy
😱Dry grass and lots of dead trees in the nearby forests
😥 Almost no rain the the past several weeks.
So it’s time to be prepared!
** Check with your local emergency management organization for info on what you should put together for your area.**
I shared some of what I packed in the video, and here are a few logistics tips:
👉 it took me about an hour to gather the items on my list
👉 I “raided” our extra camping supplies for some of the stuff, including water treatment supplies, a multi-tool, first aid kit and lights.
👉 there are some items that we’ll need to grab last minute if we have to go, like laptops and passports, so I taped a list of those items on the top of the box.
I hope this helps … be safe out there 🙏🏻
