Well, howdy there internet people, let's bow again. So today we are going to talk about

Idalia, TARP's, Preparedness in general. We got a question, we're going to run through it,

tell you how to get some resources, and then link you to some other stuff.

Okay, so here's the message.

Hi, first I apologize if you've already talked about this.

I've searched and cannot find anything

although I do remember you mentioning the blue tarps in a video last year.

It's because of the way I title my video. My question is what would it be good to have on hand as far as tarps go?

I'm interested in size as well as thickness.

I'm someone that almost always has at least two of the inexpensive six by eight

blue tarps in my car because they are useful for so many things. I'm a

retired community health nurse so my car is pretty well stocked for emergencies

for humans and animals. I really have no idea what would be best to have stocked at

home either for personal needs or to help others.

Any advice and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, so as far as the tarps go,

1-888 roof blue.

After a disaster, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,

they have a thing called Operation Blue Roof, I think is what it's called.

You can get those for free.

1-888-R blue, B-L-U.

And generally speaking, they are set up and running pretty quick.
