OK, Your Survival Guy’s writing to you this morning with the house power restored, but no internet service. Let me say, there’s some weakness in security with no internet when, for example, your property security cameras depend on Wi-Fi. (Note to self, when is security more important and necessary than when the you-know-what hits the […]

Survival SUPER States: A Place to Call Home
When you can’t even send your kids or grandkids to public schools, you ask yourself, “What am I paying for?” When your local police force is gutted, you ask yourself, “What am I paying for?” When your politicians treat you like a piggy bank you ask yourself “What am I paying for?” This simple question […]
PREPPING: You Don’t Have to Save the World in a Weekend
What’s worked for us is to approach the daunting task of prepping with baby steps. Once you start it’s easy to get overwhelmed. You don’t have to save the world in a weekend. But you should be ready to survive and thrive no matter what comes your way. Ben Sixsmith reports in Spectator World that […]
MAYDAY: Black Smoke Rising from Your Survival Guy’s Boat
You don’t mess around with smoke on a boat. Which is where Your Survival Guy found himself last Saturday preparing to bring our boat, Tom Sawyer, back to Newport after a two-week stay on a mooring I keep in Mattapoisett. (You can read here about how my yard went up in smoke). Turning the engines […]
Four Letter Word I’m Celebrating this Labor Day
Your Survival Guy wants to share a personal story with you. It’s from a client who’s finally calling it quits. Dr. Lee Payne and I have been working together for close to 20-years but when you consider his affiliation with Richard C.

Your Survival Guy: NH Winter is Coming
Your Survival Guy just took receipt of two cords of semi-seasoned wood to add to the rotation. If cooler temps in July are any indication of what’s to come, it will be a cold winter. My contacts tell me they’re booked three months out, so work your network now before it’s too late. At Burly […]
Your Survival Guy: Emerging Food and Energy Crisis
You know how hard it is to get back the life you once knew. If you’re paying attention, no matter how hard you try, the life you knew a year and a half ago isn’t coming back, ever. Sure, you can make an effort and pretend like the good ole days are back. But it’s […]
Escape From the City: You’re Going to Like What You See
Originally posted June 10, 2020. It’s time for you to take back your country. Get out. Move around. Have a little courage. Rub your eyes and move. Enough of this stay at home nonsense. Get out there. Just stay away from the cities for now, because the great migration is yesterday’s news. Anyone with a […]
You’re Telling Your Survival Guy This and More…
You’re telling Your Survival Guy about your recent fly fishing float trip to Wyoming, where your guide said, “We don’t wear masks around here.” Yet another reason I love the big, red, Cowboy State of Wyoming. Contrast Wyoming with NYC, and you realize the importance of having some space to move around. The same client […]
