Hi Guys
We're currently at the TT in Seaside, Oregon (leaving today).
The area is in a Tsunami zone and they have a weekly "siren test" and annual full blown emergency drill - a great idea.
This got me and Ann-Marie talking about what we would do if WE had an emergency situation - ie Heart Attack etc.
What would people suggest (other than calling 911? ;D).
Given that CGs are often miles from anywhere, waiting for medics to arrive could be fatal.
I suggested that we should turn the headlamps and hazzards on, open curtains and front door, then do a few blasts on the air horns of the Emergency Distress Signal (you know, " . . . - - - . . . " (dont know if thats how its written).
This would hopefully bring a few people out of their RVs, who could help with directing the ambulance or opening security gates etc etc.
You never know, there may even be a doctor or nurse located 2 coaches down from where you're hooked-up.
What are your thoughts on this ??
Obviously, it may be a bit of a problem waking the campground only to find it's a bit of wind? ;D
Does anyone else have an "emergency plan" they have agreed?
Thanks
Paul
