re: Your house is on fire, family is out safe, you have time to run in once. What do you grab?

my grandfather's Hebrew Bible that he used when he was in the seminary... it's about 100 years old at this point...

DVD and stick drives of kids pictures



All my digital pictures and important documents are scanned and on USB drives but they are also backed up to the cloud. So grabbing those wouldn’t be a priority.

Any that answered photos for this should really back up stuff you care about on a server some where (cloud). If it's old timey physical pictures you can scan those and do the same. If you don't have the time or know-how to do that, there are a bunch of services you can send a box of pictures to that will do it for you. Long gone are the days of losing pictures.

Go in and grab a beer with that baw from earlier.

My Sitka gear

No doubt I’d go directly for the Handwritten thank you note my Dad wrote me after I gave my Grandfather’s eulogy. It’s not replaceable.

Then maybe you should keep it in a safety deposit box

Most of my important stuff is in a fireproof safe.

I’d grab my keys, phone, wallet, golf clubs.

Ronnie Milsap tape. The one with “keeps the home fires burning” on it.

Tigerdroppings coozie

frick someone said it

2007 Gibson Les Paul Standard Honeyburst that has been with me since ‘07.

Next would be my Springfield 1911.

The fire can have the rest.

For me it’s family albums and pictures

When I left my house for the last time before Katrina hit I left my photo album and it got swamped.. I had just buried my dad the week before and lost my mom about 10 years earlier. All the pics I had taken of my early adulthood, family, friends, girlfriends, dogs and vacations.. all gone. All the other stuff I lost was replaceable but not the photos. I am still pissed about that.
