Hopefully, the mailman will pick up my first drop box to Mimbres, New Mexico today. I logged in to the http://www.usps.com/ site and did a "Click-N-Ship" online; including scheduling a free pick up at my front door. If all goes well, then it will make it a lot easier for my wife to get my drop boxes to me. For 11 pounds by Priority Mail it was only $11.05. I have about 10 more boxes to ship. Right now it is figuring out to be about $20/day for food including shipping. That's not bad for the quanity and quality of food. It was a real chore to make up menus for 9+ weeks and buy all the food. In fact I am still waiting for three more shipments to arrive. It is turning out to be an equally big chore to pack it up and ship it out. By the time all is said and done it will be between $1400-$1500 for the trip. I will eat out some, but not all that often. The weight with the dehydrated and freeze dried food is less than half of grocery store food. That is the choice I have made. Each person has to make their own choices.

How much easier could it be? Buy the postage and schedule the pick up on the Internet, then set the box on the front porch.
