What would you do?

Posted on by

What would you do if this was moving into your town, your neighborhood or your home? Slow moving water you can’t stop, you can’t sand bag high enough. What would you do? what would you grab, take with you? Where would you go? Remember there is no electricity, so no gas stations what you have in the tank or stored away is what you got. This isn’t just a what if situation or question. This was a reality for the people of South Carolina most of them lost everything. The closer they were to the Lumberton River the faster it happened. It was a matter of life or death you have minutes to grab what you can and leave. What would you do? We will get into this more on our next podcast #6 coming this weekend.flooding

Camping, Hiking, outdoor workouts

Posted on by

We will host Outdoor workouts, “Off Grid” (No Machines) workouts. We get together and promote a healthy lifestyle for people who want to be active and enjoy mother nature. No we are not tree hugging hippies(not that there is anything wrong with them) but the outdoor world is a big beautiful place and we just want to get out and see it.
