The hotel idea is nice but with tens of thousands of people evacuated, what makes you think you can get a reservation? My wife and I discussed it and we decided to head for Anaheim if we were evacuated because it is off-season and the hospitality infrastructure around Disneyland is immense.
As for the guns, I'd rather not have my guns laying around for someone to steal if there is looting (which there is). Better to lug em than to put em on the street.

Fair enough. I understand your thought process. My thought was that I'm just getting out and if I need something to eat or a toothbrush I'll go buy it. To me that's not needless spending as the cost of hygiene items are trivial and the entire state can't be out. And as you said, if I needed to drive to Anaheim, or Las Vegas for that matter to get a hotel that's what I would do. Again, I was just curious as to why people listed so many different items, not saying anyone is wrong.
