Evacuation List

I decided it was time to make sure that my stuff was in order for the summer for evacuation. Not that we need it today. It snowed today. So we are okay for a little while. But in the future it might be nice to have the list. I decided to post it because it might be useful to someone else. I don't think that many other places have as many fires as here but there have been fires all over the place lately so I thought it was a good idea to post a list. Also I just heard that hurricanes are supposed to be much worse this year. So I guess those areas will have to prepare for evacuating due to a hurricane.

So here's the list:

Evacuation list (for fire)

Depending on how much time go down this list as much as possible. Get things in order as they are listed from most to least important. My 72 hour kit is already in the car but make sure to take that too. Make sure kids and Sierra are in the car and safe.

1. Important papers: (filed on computer desk.) Birth Certificates, shot records, marriage certificate, passports, church membership records, patriarchal blessings. Also wallets, with social security cards and temple recommends. Get Life insurance records, renters insurance records, and an itemized list of stuff in the house. (still need to make itemized list.)

2. Scrap Books: (on bottom of book shelf by dining room table) Also quilts made by Grandma Vira downstairs.

3. Computer: (on computer desk.) make sure to include all cables and charger.

4. Cell phone and cell phone charger:

5. Christmas ornaments: (boxes in garage)

6. Christmas spinning thing from Germany (in kitchen cupboard by garage door.)

7. black box of pictures (in kitchen cupboard by garage door.)

8. A bag of toys for kids: (let them pack while I am packing. It doesn't matter what they pack but make sure it is their favorite stuff. They will need something to do.)

8. A suit case for girls: Include at least five outfits to change into if there is time. Make sure to include socks, pjs and shoes. Also tooth brushes, soap, shampoo, hair brush and clips. Church clothes are a good idea too. If there is room bring a favorite blanket and pillow. Make sure to include bathing suits. (if there isn't time to pack everything grab the dirty clothes basket.)

9. A suit case for Cameron and I: Include five outfits and work clothes for Cameron. Also church and temple clothes. Make sure to include bathing suits. Also make sure to bring extra contacts for Melissa.

10. Videos and video camera: (plus the regular camera and adapters.)

11. If there is time clean out the fridge and bring whatever you can in a cooler. (What ever I don't bring just throw out so fridge doesn't stink.) Also get the dog food.

12. If there is time close all blinds in the house. Take curtains down because they can easily catch on fire.

13. Leave message on phone (if the electricity is still on that we have left and where we are going.)

14. Move propane tank away from house. Or take it will us.

15. Lock the house from good so looters won't try to get inside.
