We experienced the Fort McMurray event. When we got the mandatory evac order we had time to grab important papers, all of them in file boxes; and all the cash money we had at home. I scrambled to get most of my firearms / hunting gear / fishing tackle / camera equipment and hooked up my boat to my truck. We had been planning to go away for a few days later that week so we had overnight suitcases partly ready, we just filled them with whatever we could grab from dresser drawers. We also took sleeping bags and some water bottles. And my wife took some of her birthday cake that we had been enjoying that morning!
