Glad to hear nobody got hurt Do you know what caused it?
I'm glad that you and your son are safe and sound.
Glad to see everyone was ok.As for being ready I think you were well off. Don't worry about fire, just yell Thor a bunch of times and a lightning will help you out. As for first aid, no matter what you have, it is never enough.

Glad your son and yourself (and everyone else) are all ok. I think you were pretty well prepared, you were on a day out with your son and while being prepared is part of who/what we are, you can only carry so much. In the event of a serious injury, you had the tools on you to fashion bandages etc. I think the only reasonable addition to what you had is a small first aid kit ? as an aside, the CRKT Kert looks interesting, depending on your opinion of it there could be one in my future.
Man, that must have been terrifying after the fact as I am sure it probably happened very quickly to worry about it during the event. Very happy to hear no one got injured. As far as the first aid kit, a small portable one would have helped your son and you, however, in a major accident, it wouldn't be enough.

You must not reveal the secret firemaking trick to everyone It only works for you norsemen anyway. Maybe if I were to get a carbon steel Mjolnir pendant that could also be used as a firesteel scraper, the steel component in a flint and steel and a bearing block for bowdrill fires :think
At least all the thread derailments around here may have somewhat prepared you for this situation.

Or maybe problems with the track wich is from the 1870s. There will be an incident investigation by the authorithies though.
