For Better For Worse


MarksvilleandMe reivews
For Better For Worse
written by
Rachel Semo Wool


Most people who met me, know I like to read about the Holocaust, WWII, and the like. For Better For Worse was no different. Even though this book does not revolve solely around WWII it does tell the memories of life from before WWI to present times. The ups and downs of life or should I say the For Better For Worse times.

All families struggle from time to time and this is a story that tell of those struggles as well as the hurdles they overcame. This book is a wonderful recollection of a family that seemed to be always one step ahead of the Nazi's which is amazin in itself. I admire people of this time for the things they had to do just to live. I hope you will read this story and remember life is full of For Better For Worse and we can overcome them with a little faith.

Be prepared




Most people know that clean water sources that are drinkable are getting harder and harder to find. So first of all we all need to take action in reducing water use, and also keeping an eye out to make sure we are giving our families healthy water to drink.

Not so easy if you are out hiking and get lost in the woods, running out of water. if you have one of these personal water straws with you then you can drink for that creek you have been following, or if need be even a puddle depending on just how long you have become.

This will keep you hydrated and aware so you can keep your head until you find your way back or someone find you. Great for the backpack, hiker, camper, hunter, survivalist, doomsday prepper. As a family we have a few stashed away just in case.

The Acquapura personal water straw comes with a bit more then what I am used to seeing, but it still works the same as all of the others. I have a video review up on another brand on our YouTube under MarksvilleandMe and will have one up on this one in the next few days, but until then check out that video so you can get the gist of what this has to offer, and how to use one.

Camping Folding Shovel Pick With Compass





What my husband liked about this Camping Folding Shovel Pick with Compass is the portability as well as usefulness.

He was concerned at first because of it folding up. He didn't think it would be as rugged as someone would need while camping. He was really happy to see that it indeed was strong once put together fully.

Less then a minute to assemble.


You can see our video review below.
