2. What ever my grandson hasn't tied in knots!

My old single wide sits in the center of woods and scrub so thick that it is protected pretty good. I'm about 35 feet above sea level, 11 miles inland.
Shelters seem to be run by little jerks who turn into storm troopers at the first chance, I guess I'm just too old and independent to be controled.
I know that shelters are good for many people, just not for me.
