Are you prepared?

Recently we celebrated Joan’s 65th birthday, for three days, at the Russian River. We stayed in Monte Rio in the rustic, renovated Highland Dell Lodge, originally built in 1906. We visited the ocean at the Sonoma coast (Jenner by the Sea, Bodega Bay, Fort Ross) and drove through the whole of the Russian River valley. The views were spectacular, the food great — a truly peaceful get-away.
The Russian River area does often flood during the rainy season. We saw many homes raised on stilts, well above the first story. There were many berms, small hills, placed to keep the river within its banks. In harmony with all the beauty and lushness, there were obvious plans to blend with the seasons of the river — To protect and safe-guard homes and businesses.
 
I did wonder — Do you have plans for the different seasons in your life or natural disasters that may occur in your homeland?
 
Do you have a backup contact out of the area to say we are safe? What safe place would you meet your family, if need be? What supplies and needs to you have at the ready? Food, water, generators, flashlights, etc.?
 
Can we be of help with your preparation?
 
With this in mind, we wish to offer you our special report on earthquake preparedness.

How well are you prepared for a catastrophic or natural disaster? Maybe The Fix-It Professionals could be of help.
