Layers of Security for the Homestead

Since time will be bad and there will be no Wal-Mart to run for replacement parts or food if we run out we need to have some layers of security. By doing our layers of security by at least three we will have a better chance of survival.
OK let me explain how this works. Let’s start with our second most important rule of three and that is shelter.
Our first layer of security is our retreat where we plan to live.
Our second layer of security is our camper that’s at our retreat.
Our third layer or security is our four season tent in out backpack.
Our fourth layer or security is the lean to we build.
Let’s look at water.
First layer is the well pump.
Second layer is the hand pump for the well.
Third layer is the well bucket and pulley.
Fourth layer is the 1000 gallon tank full or water.
Fifth layer is the spring or stream and so on.
If we keep this kind of thinking on every aspect of our survival preparation we should be in good shape.
