Waiting it out

It looks like we are going to have an interesting fall and winter. Between climate issues and political unrest things could get interesting. My lovely wife and I have decided to pretty much hunker down and wait it out. I’d feel pretty silly being far from home and have things get . . . exciting. 

Maybe it’s just a feeling, but sometimes you’ve got to trust your gut. It’s not that I’m getting all woo woo about the future. All you have to do is to have one eye on the news and that’s enough to make anyone worried. 

I’m going to go off on a tangent here for a bit. Let me address the somewhat older folks on the blog or those with an interest in History. Let’s go back to before the Iraq war. There were all these articles about how Saddam had this amazing bunker. It was supposed to be some kind of technological marvel. Back in 2003 Newsweek did this article about how advanced his bunkers were. Look it up. So where was he captured? In some dirty spider hole. That never made any sense to me. 

I suppose there’s a lesson there. If you have a secure location you’d best make use of it. 

There is one thing that would get me moving out of a safe zone: a rescue operation. If a family or friend needed help I’d find a way to make it happen. 

On a positive note, I feel pretty good about late winter going into spring. That’s something to look forward to.
