Usually, I use other people's words but this time I am using a picture that made me think. It doesn't show what I saw very well so I will put my thoughts here.
This wash has a road on both sides of the wash - the right side or shaded side is clear and ready , the left side wouldn't allow anything but an off road vehicle down it.
We can't prepare for everything, but we should at least try to have emergency roads open and ready. Prayer is one - we may not use it as often as we should, but it would be good to know how at the very least.
I have seen many alleyways in our neighborhood that is for emergency vehicles to get closer to homes and trees are growing up in the middle of the road. Can you imagine how long it would take a firetruck if it had to cut down a tree first.
OK my words aren't saying what I want to say.
As an example here are some thoughts about preparing for an earth quake ... what is it in your life that could happen and how could you prepare?
1. Secure your space by identifying hazards and securing moveable items.
2. Plan to be safe by creating a disaster plan and deciding how you will communicate in an emergency.
3. Organize disaster supplies in convenient locations.
4. Minimize financial hardship by organizing important documents, strengthening your property, and considering insurance.
