He has a plan that has not been revealed to his sailboats crew yet to hopefully put them into some new profitable adventures.

From down the Choctawhatchee River in Alabama to the Gulf of Mexico in Florida, listen and follow our survivors as they flee the chaos and mayhem of the city on the safest alternate route they can find. All their gear, all their hopes, and dreams of survival are packed in a compact technologically- advanced trailer that can turn into a boat. Join Sam and Lori as they use all their survival skills and prepper wits to try to prosper and thrive in this grid down apocalypse and avoid the creeping extinction that follows them as modern society collapses.

Electrical transformers will burn and a smoke filled night will fall with ominous portents when the next mega solar geomagnetic storm hits. Uncontrolled fires will dance and light up the horizon nationwide as crimson and green auroras fill the skies with dread. Hogan predicts that Atlanta will burn again someday. He knows that the power grid will go down and stay down also some day from the effects of a solar storm EMP. The hero of the story, a business continuity planner has tried to prepare as best he can to escape the city and avoid the nightmare inferno and societal collapse he predicts, but will his preparations be enough? He and his friend Annie cannot escape by highway because of the horrible snarls of traffic jams and the mayhem of panicked people fleeing the encroaching flames. Perhaps the fires will not be as bad as Hogan thinks. Perhaps what fires that are burning and smoldering can be controlled if the city can keep the emergency diesel generators pumping water for the brave firemen still on duty.
