Rope cures all kinds of ills - corrupt politicians, and some medical (or so they say) . . . .

If nothing else, I could probably buy a small portion of land from the inlaws and build there.  Its not a terrible location.  But in the event of fallout, may be less desirable than western TX.

They live near Cuero,TX.

Spike strips would surely stop a car...  And be another GREAT indicator that "this is a house full of goodies.  SHOP HERE!".  Besides, now you've disabled my car, so you've forced me to start hunting for victims nearby.  I'm now on foot and know you've got something your trying to protect.  Bad choice to disable any possible attackers car! 

Barbed wire wont stop anyone "stalking", even trip wires are easily detected when stalking.  An unimposing gate or even heavy wire cable is likely best be for the driveway.  Steel pipe is easily welded into a respectable, but unimposeing gate.  Just dont overbuild drawing attention and making possible theives wonder.  "What's he so worried about protecting?"

Get over the ego's, and think about it (tom).  I'm not trying rain on anybodies parade.  But isnt it a waste to have a "bunker" if the first dumb dumb with a rifle pops you in the head and takes it from you.  If I put myself on the other side of this, I'd be the first one to invite somebody else to tell me what I could do to protect it and my life better...   ::)

Badger, how can someone get popped in the head when they're in a bunker?

It can be done, but not by an asshat like him. Apparently he never saw a DIRT road. He's like Onrecess, when I see his posts I consider the source.

Maybe I should have titled this thread "Your dream home, where and what do you want it to be.  I should have left bunker out of it.  Sorry guys.

By the way I protect my dream home with gravel, claymores, and an Abrams.  If all that fails I have a suitcase nuke so I won't be taken alive.

Seeing how I'm the spawn of a Navy family, I was given many a good KNOT manual.

"It is extraordinary how little the average individual knows about the art of making even the simplest knots"
R.M Abraham,..Winter Night's Entertainments 1932..

Being in the marine industry, former commercial fisherman, and wannabe MacGyver, I always have a good knot.

Whippings, Zeppelins Bend, (no not the band),..carricks, bowline's, to a simple simon, to a simple hitch, and my favorite the Palomar,... knots have a purpose. Even for politicians.

I watched this thread go 5 pages,...TEOTWAWKI, has happened. Hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, anything that TOTALLY disrupts our "normal" lives, has happened, and we have seen the result.

What we choose to do makes us survivors or victims.  I survived an ice storm in NC in 95 that left me sleeping with my dogs and pregnant wife by a fireplace for 6 days...(with my .357 also....), and many a hurricane...

Either way, there are those that will always be unprepared, and not have the ability to "cope" without electricity, cable TV, microwave,....

Some will overcome and adapt. My house will be my fortress, until deemed futile to remain. Most will never consider leaving "their stuff", others will.

Just an observation.

Bunkers, basements, reinforced windows and doors, all will work, until,....
