I Need One of These. I Really, Really Need One.

Everyone who lives in Tornado Alley knows the importance of having a storm cellar or shelter.

Most of us, by now, realize that a zombie apocalypse is inevitable. It’s no longer a question of if, but when.

And whether or not you believe all the gloom and doom that gets thrown around on Facebook about climate change, global warming, chemtrails, HAARP, weather manipulation and the Illuminati, the thought has probably crossed your mind that having an underground shelter would be a good idea.

We do have a storm cellar. It gives me great peace of mind knowing our family would be safely underground should a tornado ever pass too close for comfort.

The door on our storm cellar is heavy metal and has some kind of locking device that we’ve been assured a tornado couldn’t breach, so I’m pretty sure it’s also zombie-proof.

But I wouldn’t want to stay down there very long. As much as I love The Rock, Pebbles, our two dogs and the 200+ stuffed animals that Pebbles refuses to leave behind so we have to figure out a way to take them all with us – I know without a doubt we’d all go stark raving nutso in a ten by twelve shelter together after more than a few hours.

I do believe, however, that we could tough out quite a long stretch in this underground beauty.

Wondering who The Rock and Pebbles are? Want to know why we’re raising Pebbles? And who the heck is OCD Louie? Find the answer to these burning questions and more on my About My Blog page.
