Evacuation scenario: You have one hour to pack and leave your home. Think of five items that are absolute must-haves, things you absolutely cannot leave behind or live without, and choose one of them to write the story of the evacuation from its perspective.

Feel free to share your short packing list and which item you’d choose to tell the tale.
