Aggghhhh, I thought I was reading an excerpt from some post-apocalyptic novel...
This is so terrible. Following your updates and having spoken to you and Chris on the radio show it hits home so much harder than just seeing it on the news.
I do hope so much there is some more better news soon.
Any word on the UN Peacekeepers coming?

Nothing from the UN yet. Nicas living in the US are picketing in front of the UN trying to bring attention to the problem here. Weare busy today preparing for the worst case scenario tomorrow. I hope the government will back down, but so far it doesn't look like it.
Hopefully the government won't shut down power etc tomorrow.
Do you have any solar generation kit at all?
No, we don't. That was to be on our project list for this year, but we have been unable to get solar panes into the country since last fall.
Any other generator supplies, besides cars? Even something that hand cranke would be valuable.
We have three generators, 4 back up batteries, lots of candles and kerosene lanterns, flashlights, firewood and 2 propane tanks. Everything is full of fuel and extra gasoline in an underground tank with a hand pump. Also a supply of diesel. Nothing with a hand crank though.
Good to know you are set up on generators and fuel! So very glad you Prepped!
:)If you place the generator in a hole, the sound they make goes straight up. This make them hard to locate by sound. Self blackout is smart, remember the wire snares! Be safe.
I will thanks, @smithlabs! Thanks for all your great suggestions to keep us safer. I appreciate it!
