To Millennium-ark Readers,
For the next two weeks, our site will not be updated. However, our secure online shopping is still available 24/7.
Due to the lateness of the hour, we must get our own preps finalized. In the midst of this, L.A. Marzulli's film crew arrives Saturday to tape Stan's portion for his next Watchers 3 video.
To those that have phoned or emailed asking where should we move, where should we go?, it is late in the game to move to a new property and get it ready.
When Stan and I moved to our 10-acre farm in Australia and enjoyed a considerably lighter work load, it took TWO years to make that property self-sufficient so we could shut the doors for several years and let the world twist this way and that. Today, as the economy flounders and people work several jobs to meet expenses, they simply will not have the time. Unless you already have a property and plans drawn for those needed improvements, can throw a lot of $$ at the project to expedite work, it's likely you won't have time to complete the necessary jobs. Time is short. Time is very, very short.
We are taking our own advice and digging in here to make the best of what comes. If you've let your own preps slide a bit, take advantage of the tons of FREE information found by clicking the first orange tab at the top left. It costs you nothing but your time.
There is no one thing that urges me to take time off from the website for a bit. Certainly two rare, moderate size earthquakes striking Virginia and Colorado within hours of each other was an attention getter, but it's more than that. Each day news headlines are more disturbing to the point where people are becoming numb and forgetful. It you need a refresher, pick any of the blue bar archives at the top of this page and have a read through. It's pretty grim.
Natural disasters are ramping up while the economy crumbles. Crops are either cooked in the ground by unrelenting heat and drought, or rotted from too much rain.
Rumblings persist about troop movements throughout the U.S. Many people have witnessed this though we have not seen it here. The government is also preparing for expected civil unrest. Think it can't happen in a civilized world? Look at London two weeks ago.
Right now, the military is in the midst of "Vibrant Response 12", which is their largest-ever drill preparing for a catastrophic nuclear attack on America. We have no special, concrete knowledge of a coming event, but it is unnerving to see them prepare for this. The Cold War strategy of Jimmy Carter hoped there were no longer any nuclear worries due to MAD - mutual assured destruction – and nuking the Soviet leadership rather than wiping out the population. As a result, since the 1970's public fallout shelters are nonexistent. Before this unfortunate move, who worried about North Korea, Iran, terrorists with irrational minds and other countries that might have twitchy nuclear fingers. Now we are left vulnerable.
Many countries in the Middle East are coming unglued and while some people still view that unrest as "over there", there is no such thing any more. Crises have a way of flowing everywhere in a global community. These events, these issues are Biblical prophecy coming to fruition so we know time is short.
Take these things together and even though it was nearly 100ºF yesterday, I sense Fall around the corner. It is a gentle poking to get busy, get things done before it's too late. For those of you in the path of Irene, our prayers are with you. With that said, we'll see you after Labor Day. —Holly and Stan
