suggest getting a helmet..and a gun or two.

Seeds, check.
Overpass, check.
Mattress, check.
Gold, that one got by me.
Gun or two, check.
I'll have to take the land by force.
Can you suggest a make/model of helmet? I have a motorcycle helmet, but it'll cut out my peripheral vision substantially.
Funny, I was just thinking the other day of how few kids learn any survival skills nowadays. We lived in the woods for weeks at a time when we were kids, by ourselves. The old man took a lot of time to teach us good stuff, too. I'd rather sit in the air conditioning, but we'll be okay if worse comes to worse. I'm not gonna sweat it. I'd still like a comfortable helmet, though.
