Im telling ya, folks…eBay is the best thing to hit the preparedness-minded world since the advent of freeze dried food.

USPS dropped off another pair of field phones today. Heh…I love these things. When I have Commander Zero’s Post Nuclear Love Bunker up and running these babies will be used for the various observation posts. Additionally, there will most definitely be one down by the locked gate…because coming ont ZeroLand unannounced is *such* a bad idea.

In addition to the phones themselves, Im also bidding on a couple 1/4 mile spools of wire and a couple headsets for these things.

Interestingly, most of the small, easily affordable acquisitions are done or very close to being done. There are two outstanding acquisitions however: uber-reliable vehicle (see earlier post on the subject) and the nice piece of remote real estate that will become the legendary haven that is Rancho Ballistica.

For now, I’ll just settle for the bare land…I can always build at a later date. Id just like to have the actual property. I think thats what the next post will be about…
