In response to certain world factors, Ryan and Katie decided it was high time to build and provision a survival bunker. The bunker is stocked with food, water, weapons, ammunition and tools. Ryan is defending it with his rifle.

I presume Katie, queen of pillow forts, built the structure, while it was Ryan who surveyed the world conditions and designed the air recirculation and other systems.

I was not allowed for obvious reasons to publish this until after this test system was moved to an undisclosed location.
