Hello mrlee,

just outside the Chicago limits...

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hello Chicagoians:
I'm on the far South Side, near I-80/294 cutoff. Not far away in miles, and fewer in heart.

60 miles west of Chicago. Do you have plans to get out of the city?

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Greetings, MrLee... I live in Central Illinois, right across the river from DoctorWho and his family! Our small world is getting smaller!

Peace and joy to you!

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Does anyone have supplies, self protection in place yet? I have plenty of botteled water and a well that is filtered biologically as well as chemically. Never leave home without a good strong axe!

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hey guys, thanks for the interest

Does anyone know a safe place to be when S*** hits the fan? Wisconsin sounds good, but I've never been there so I don't know what the geography is like.

Oh, and I'm in the process of buying a lot of canned food from Costco. The amount I buy will depend on if some catastrophic event does happen and to what degree it will suck:mfr_lol:

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hello all. I live about 7 miles west of Chicago. My first thought when it comes to a safe place is Wisconsin, as well.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hello. I am in Joliet, IL.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hello everybody:original: ,I live in Gurnee Il area,45 miles north from Chicago.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

central illinois here... i have been moving around a lot testing out the feel of different geographies... (arizona, oregon)... right now i am in a small town near bloomington/normal... my biggest concern would be good water... there is no wilderness here in the midwest, and i may decide to move on over to north carolina near some mountains... maybe missouri... depends on timely clues... i would much rather be in costa rica, but here is where i be...

nice to make first contact...
i have been wanting a board like this, and toyed with creating one myself, but knew i did not have the time or resources to pull it off effectively...
glad to see it actually happen...

i will say, i am a bit hesitant to give out too much information in public... those who would harm would find a site like this a treasure trove of explicit information and geographic location details... anyone else concerned about that? or are we too far gone for that sort of worry?

if s*** hits the fan before i move again, and i have to migrate, i will be heading south of here unless there is a nice farm land owner who already has a safehaven who would let me in, if i ever found him/her in the first place... i have skills... many skills and much motivation

nice to meet ya'll

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hey Hey, I'm much closer downtown apprently than most, but for now I don't have much of a choice. Comforting to know you're all out there though. Look forward to hearing from you.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

NW Indiana here

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Mr Lee and neighbors,

How do we go about to establishing a community or a network? Any Ideas? I am south of Chicago just moments out of the city. I don't know much about farming, or survival after a an emergency other then a blackout for a few hours. UM, I can due data entry anyone. I now, I lived in the City for over 25 yrs. I quess I should start to learn with little time. I have no way to get to South America. Where they claim it would be safe. I am staying right here and keeping a positive spin. It would be nice to know we can have a backup plan in place some way to stay in touch with other people working together and helping each other in case of a mass emergency. We need ideas, structure of a plan.

Perhaps Mr. Lee since you started the thread you would like to lead us so we can start forming at least some kind of network, resources, etc. for our area.

Thank You!

Hello! There is starseed in Indiana?! Fab! South Bend area here. :biggrin2:

Just north of Rockford myself. "Long time listener, first time caller, as they say.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Sweet home, Chicago...
Hello all.
I was born in Glendale Heights and lived in all kinds of areas both around and in Chicago itself.
Couple years back, I moved to Florida and when I realized how STUPID that was, I moved to North Carolina.
Here are some reasons this was a good idea:

The Appalachian Mountains. They are the oldest in the world. They used to be as tall as Everest but Time has whittled them down and now they roll pleasantly, covered in trees and greenery. You can feel the spirits in this land.

Asheville. This town is extremely focused on local, natural commerce. When the economy overall has gone to s**t, Asheville's economy has actually gotten better. I'm not gonna tell you gas is any cheaper, but I have tentative faith that the people here will not rape and pillage one another... at least not like in Chicago. I'm sorry, the city is just too big.

The land. You can grow just about anything here. The season is long and mild and its not too hard at all to grow your own food. There are two organic gardens on the land where I live right now. Its too bad the owner is completely refusing to even think something bad could really happen. She's waiting to see it on the news.

I know a lot of you are thinking of Wisconsin as a good alternative to the city... Think of the winters. You'll need tons of wood and thick bear skins and you know that cheese won't keep forever. We have winter here but not like Wisconsin.
Bottom line, go where you feel safe. We didn't know a soul when my girlfriend and I decided to come here. If you decide to come too, at least you know me.

See you soon! :welcomeani:

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Yes, I have been 'planted' here for almost 30 years. There are a couple of others that I know of that live close to me as well. It's nice to know that there are others in this general area. I just wish that there were more speaking up. In due time, I suppose...

Re: Chicago, IL
 

Hi Guys,

Nice to see so many isn't this great!!!!

I have family in your area.

Maybe they should chat with you!

Much to cover, much to do.

Anyone near Quincy, IL? I am here for the next eight months or so and would love to connect with some people for support in the near-term should something life-changing occur externally.

Peace.

Re: Chicago, IL
 

I'm in the north suburbs.

I'm new to the forums, because I've only just recently started to see/understand what is going on right now, even if I've had an underlying sense of it all coming for many years. Needless to say I'm really behind the eight ball in many ways, and the fact that I live alone has me very, very unsettled.

I live in Wisconsin near Lake Geneva. Pretty isolated from like minded people. Good to know your on this site and live relatively close.

Re: Illinois
 

Hello, I'm in Winnebago, Illinois, near Rockford. EVERYONE PREPARE! Heeeerrreee it comes! The chemtrail spraying some days is incredibly dense, at times I've seen over 5 spray craft in the sky at once. Some begin to turn before shutting off their tanks... big mistake! (ease of identification).
Get your hands on some colloidal silver, hi pH water products, oxygen supplements, heavy metal detox supplements and, OH YES, you must have a BERKEY (or similar) gravity fed water purifier that will convert river, stream, lake or pond water into clean, drinking water. GET THIS STUFF NOW!

Re: Illinois
 

I found this site where you can buy entire palettes of MREs. Does anybody want to get together to split this? I want to split the half-palette, but enough of us get together we can split a full one and save a little extra. :) You can contact me at mrlee99507@msn.com

Re: Illinois

I'd like to speak to people in the city

Re: Illinois
 

Yorkville, Kendall County. Hello all my fellow illinoisians (if you made more than one "s" sound while saying that word, you might be from a Southern neighbor State originally)

Re: Illinois
 

im 3 hrs short of chicago we seem to have allot of people from the illinois area we can should set up a plan

Re: Illinois
 

Hi all,

My name is Pete and I live near Joliet.

Let's set up a meeting at a public place. Let's make it near a major intersection of two interstates.

I55 and I80?

Anyone interested?


Pete

Re: Illinois
 

I'm not sure why this thread stopped, I hope it wasn't my body odor. If people are hesitant meeting in a public place we should continue to organize in Illinois/Midwest. Does anyone agree?

Pete
