Weekend Assignment #78: Evacuation...

Weekend Assignment #78: You are preparing to evacuate your house due to an upcoming threat. You have already packed up all your essential items, people and pets. You have room for three non-essential items. What are they? Picture from Hometown

Gosh, the thought of evacuating is frightening in itself.  I feel so sorry for all the millions of people right now faced with the real reality of evacuation.  It scares me; but if I had to pick 3 (only three?!) I would take the following:

1.  Photo Albums/family photos--all of them! 

2.  Legal documents/wedding certificate/birth certificates....all that good stuff

3.  My diamond earrings my husband gave me.

Extra Credit:  Have you ever been forced to evacuate?  No, I've been very lucky.  I hope I never need to. 

Let's all send good wishes, and our prayers to our neighbors down South and Texas!

Legal documents...that's a good one. I didn't think of that one. I live in San Antonio but thankfully I don't think we will get hit too hard.  Robin

This is where trailer-park people have the advantage, bacause they can just take the whole house.
