Welcome To The "Neigh"borhood
Today is the day we honor the animal that helped shape our world, the horse. Horses are one of the most loved livestock in the world. 31% of American homes have one person living there in love with horses. Horses have been domesticated since around 3500 BC in South Russia and Kazakhstan. Today horses are still used for manual labor and transportation, while in some parts they are used in animal-assisted therapy programs. Few ranches specialize in breeding and training champion sport horses. The horse, or equine, industry in the US alone makes $122 billion, along with 1.7 million jobs. There are 60 million horses of more than 400 breeds living on 459,526 horse ranches around the world. In a post-apocalyptic world, horses will be the cornerstone of society during this time. They will be key players in the rebuilding your community. Here is how to start your own horse ranch.

How To:
A Quinzee, or Quizhee, is a snow shelter made from a giant pile of snow. It differs from an igloo because it doesn’t involve compact blocks of hard snow, or a snow cave as it doesn’t involve digging directly into the snow. It entered the English language from the Athabascan People of Canada in 1984. Quinzees are sturdy structures when assembled correctly, making them great when stranded in very snowy areas. They can provide you with up to three days’ worth of shelter in an emergency. It works best in situations below 25 degrees F.. Here is how you can build one.
