Where Will You Hold Up?

Just a simple question I've been working myself over. And it got me thinking, what would you do?
Hole up in some abandoned house and attempt to live out your life in peace, or take to the road with friends and family, or by yourself. Or seek refuge in numbers? Fleeing where ever which way evacuee's and refugee's are heading?

Personally for me, I'd quickly take to the road with my F-150 and a few close friends. Other then the fact that I live in Austin Texas which is SUPER DOOPER hilly, an infection would be slow and quiet. But I'd still take to the road within the local road ways. I'm just wondering what you all'd do.

Depends on the situation...

What level of outbreak are we talking about?

Ohhh...let's say, Beginning of "The Great Panic", if you've read World War Z. If you haven't "The Great Panic" is when the zombie sh*t REALLY hit the fan. Mass numbers of Zack (Zombies)began overrunning everything.

I would take the following steps:

1. Take a minute to soil myself
2. Regreat that I souled myself
3. Go out to the shed behind my house and find a shovel
4. Dig a hole 2 feet in depth and 1 foot in diameter
5. firmly place my head in the whole refered to in step 4
6. carefully fill in the whole reffered to in step 5 with the dirt generated by step 4
7. Sit calmly and wait for the whole thing to pass

No one can deny this is a fool proof plan! ostridges have been doing it for millions of years and they seem pretty on the ball!

Hmmm...
Ostrich steak and Father Time steak will look and taste the same to a zombie!

I read World War Z and I'd probably hide because all the Zombies or Zacks would be chasing the fleeing populace up North. I'd then start towards the Rockies. Hopefully like the book ounce I got there I'd be safe. If not I 'd go toward the ocean. So I'd be running food except at first when I'd be waiting for all the other folks to run.

If I'm running from zombies, does that make me a fast food?

It all depends on the situation that's been answered on different threads, but I prefer to be somewhere safe with a lot of defense and food and ammo. But if I have to move, I prefer in the day and maybe out here in the San Gabriel Mountains. I know alot of trails and fire breaks, and if I had others so we can take turns keeping watch, then the tops of ridges would be good. Hopefully the steep climb and the loose dirt and rocks will hinder the zeds. And when the snow comes in, there's a couple of mineshafts that might be good or the ranger towers.

Well, BARB you were tuff enuff to wrestle that Zed into the cage you'll be fine.

Shucks Vortec, thanks for the confidence. Ok....maybe I'll at least try to make it :D

[retro zombie killer]

Don't sell you self short Barbara. Just because your screen name is Barbara doesnt mean you would go all to pieces like the original Barbara. I'm sure you'll surprise yourself. Save those pills for me though because if anything happened to my kid- wait actually I'll shoot myself in the head. I wouldn't want to O.D. on pills and come back as a Zombie. Romero might be right. You just might die from anything and become a zombie. So I'd go with a bullet in the head if anything happened to my kid and I didn't want to live which I probably wouldn't. I need to stop depressing myself. Everything should go fine as long as we all stick to our plans.

Thats it BARB never give up. Who knows you might be the one watching my back against the the ZEDS.

It's a typical human mindest, "Damn I could never handle something like that" and then BAM, you've killed four shambling corpses and ripped the arms off of two...
