What do you think of this disaster prep idea (Read details)?
My bedroom on the second floor has a balcony off of it that is over a deck on the first floor. Thinking about disaster prep, I was thinking that it would be a good idea to get and attach a rope ladder that could be deployed in case of a fire or possibly even for flood egress if necessary.
Any thoughts and suggestions? (Looking at you Lucky.)
