Buried Treasure: Inside Our Survival Cache


What’s inside our survival cache?


Months ago, the boys packed and buried supplies—planning ahead for a moment they would only experience in the future. When they finally dug it up, it felt like uncovering treasure.


Inside were simple items: water, tea, ramen, soup mix, cookies, a candy bar, matches, candles, and fire starters—even notes from their parents.


But the real value wasn’t the gear—it was the experience.


The boys learned to plan ahead, stay patient, and appreciate something they created for themselves months earlier.


It’s a simple, low-cost activity any family can try. Pack a few items, keep it a secret, and bury it.


Then wait—and let the anticipation do the rest.
