I had to get together a ditch bag a few days ago as a wildfire was headed my way and growing rapidly (14,000 acres to 28,000 overnight now 34,000). Of course I gathered the essentials earlier and while waiting to see if evacuation was going to be required I started thinking what else I should take. I looked at my collection of detectors. When thinking about it I thought if I COULDN'T sell the one I took then which one would come. I decided it would be the one I like using the most, not the most expensive one. For some guys it would be the most advanced, others one for a dedicated use, for some the most expensive etc. One thing I did decide is I have too damned much crap that seems to own me as compared to me owning it. I'm not the only one that accumulates items but I will be downsizing and selling a lot in the future. Sometimes it takes an event of sorts (health, natural disasters etc) to get us thinking.
