Your Need to Belong at Your Bug Out Destination
Even in the best of scenarios, being a refugee is a disaster. But as I always say; "There is no disaster if you are prepared". So what to do? Well, get out and practice your skills to survive. Do it as often as you can. Find a place that you like, where you are comfortable and you believe provides safety for you and your circle if you had to retreat there. Become regulars, make yourself known, get to know the people, the shop owners, the restaurants, even the law enforcement and park rangers in the area. Make friends and work out a deal to rent, purchase or barter the use of land to boondock on until you can work out more permanent arrangements. It would even help if you flesh out possible opportunities for work. Get to know the people in your field in that area, or figure out what you could do as an alternative in case you need to take up long term residence. If you do these things you will be one of the lucky ones.
If you are able to buy or rent land or a home make sure that you have paperwork to identify you as belonging there. Keep a copy in your Bug Out Bag so that you can present it to government officials who might block your travel. Get a mail drop box in the area that you go to so that you can have some mail addressed to you with that address that is postmarked if nothing else. Any little thing will help in establishing you're "belonging" in your retreat area.
Another good way to set yourself up with a retreat point is to rent land and park a motorhome or travel trailer on it. The more remote the site is the better. Balance that with the ability to get electric service and other amenities. Hopefully the retreat area will not be affected by the "Event" or the tide of refugees. Such accommodations would provide welcome stability and peace in an otherwise disastrous time.
I will go into more detail in articles in the near future covering ideas about how to carry your gear in the event that you are forced to abandon your vehicle
