what did you learn about yourself, supplies/gear, the area after the hurricane?
for me i learned that as much as i hate to say it my wife will be quite a hinderance. we didnt have power for 13 days and were offered by 5 different people to goto places that had power she refused. also her idea of survival food is not up to par. as for myself it was interesting coming home from iraq to my house where it was not so stocked with food and trying to find places with canned soup, bread and other items directly after the storm. on the plus side i had enough shotgun ammo to last and didnt need it because we live in fairly good community. there were only a few places that seemed to be gouging for the most part people seemed helpful and what not. although i definitely need to pickup some more stuff things werent too bad overall. definitely need to invest in a generator and more camping gear. i think the wife is onboard for minor prepping and means it this time.
edit something i noticed and i feel kind of stupid for asking but is unscented bleach the same as regular bleach? i found and bought regular bleach but since i dont go sniffing bleach all the time i dont know lol
