I'm with you bob on having a days worth of food packed every day, just in case. I have 30 MREs if any one would like me to bring some for them, they work out great especialy if you take them apart and only bring the stuff you want and they were free to me so let me know. Myself and gay Dave are planning on sharing a stove and fuel for the stove. The beer run idea sounds good to me but I'm also able to mix vodka with my own piss if I have to.
