I was thinking you'd be good for learning how to spot hazards - and well, good company for a day or two haha

welcome to my old house. haha

I'm so glad we're out of it! That was in a lot of places and the military wasn't required to clean it up for us.

its all pretty much common sense stuff:

squat in a sturdy building, avoid asbestos, doing everything quietly as to not draw atteintion to yourself, etc.

About three years ago I took off for a week. I lived (mostly) in a bad ass house with an open elevator shaft while it was under construction. Besides the obvious lay-low and don't be seen there is very little to it. I suggest going to sleep early and being up around 2 or 3, especially if it is in an area with a lot of bums (try to avoid areas with a bunch of bums if possible because they are usually pretty crazy). It is a good idea to sleep on top of whatever you have (or to shove it down your pants). That's about all a week taught me.
