Even just ...This would be a great project for Noah. Even just the planning would be a good start at feeling prepared. I'm looking at the picture and I can say that the watet, tp, baby wipes, kleenex, hanky, comb, chapstick, candies, sewing kit, pocket knife, socks, baggies, signal mirror, matches, buck knife, sunscreen, pencil, pad, brush-ups and flashlights came from around the house. I just had to gather them up. The tin can came out of the recycling bin. The backpack and halloween themed blanket were $3 each marked down after season at Walmart. The fire sticks, candles, emergency blankets, poncho, and energy bars came out of my hiking pack. The Hotties were shared between my sister and me. She bought toe warmers-I bought hand warmers and we gave each other half our box. Purchased this year was the whistle/compass/thermometer/magnifying glass (Like a Swiss Army whistle!), the fresh rope, candles, and lightsticks. My car needed the shovel and jumper cables but they don't go inside the pack. Hope this rambling helps someone see that they can look around and find lots of what they need to get a pack started. I mean, I don't NEED the Buck knife, but I have it so why not throw it in? And who doesn't have some water, tp and an empty bean can? Give my regards to Noah!Kristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13053261472028704834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1149409219338251414.post-89005770486363169182010-11-05T06:15:31.674-06:002010-11-05T06:15:31.674-06:00Kristine, those look amazing.

And if I bought one or two of the necessary items, then it wouldn't be prohibitively expensive (of course the buying part will have to wait for next year;-})Diane Shifferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03449110271720365988noreply@blogger.com
