So we've all see at least one Zombie Apocalypse movie. That means we've all had to of thought about what we'd do in that situation.
So what would you guys do? Head to the mall? Go to that gun hoarding nut that you've always made fun of? Head for the hills? Lets hear it folks.

Jonsey, I AM that gun-hoarding nut. :cheersmate:
My plan is quite simple: When they get to the end of the street, I fire the claymores. My spud guns have bi-pods up front, so I can seat them like mortars and lob things that go bang in the night into the midst of the zombie hordes. You know how the US Navy likes to cite the speeds it's vessels are capable of as "at least 30 knots sustained", meaning that the real speed is classified as hell so we keep recycling a figure ships have been able to sustain since WWII? Well, with all the fireworks retailers just the other side of the CO/WY border, it may be presumed that there are things that go bang in my arsenal that are "at least M-80 strength" in explosive force.
After that, they've closed into guns range, and I've got enough ammo to build a fortress wall of dead (or un-dead) zombie bodies 20 feet tall.

Ammo is good and all, but what will you eat?

I won't be doin' handmade london broil every night, but I'm not tryin' to choke down WWII era K-rats either. I'm a mormon, which should explain a lot about how I have that end covered.

I've had several mormon friends, but I'm not that spun up on your faith.
I'll take your word for it. I'll get down to my plan soon. But I hope to see others. :-)

The central point I was touching on here, is that our church leaders have been "counselling" the membership for over a hundred years to keep a 1-year's supply of food, and where possible water and fuel, in the event of emergency. 99 times out of a hundred, they aren't even talking about great depression, apocalyptic emergencies either. Just things like losing your job, family member landing in the hospital, bad crop year, etc...

1) Rescue the girls at Hooters. Tell the gals that I'm likely the only guy left. (even if its not true, thats my story and I'm sticking to it!)
2) Commandeer a Hummer or military vehicle. In the movies there are massive highway pile-ups haunted by zombies, so I'll need to go around them.
3) head to Colorado. Find some nice isolated mountain cabins, some horses (cause gas will go bad real quick).
4) run to get supplies like MRE's for the bad times and simple farming equipment.
5) Make one last run to stock up on Victoria's Secret stuff cause we're gonna have-ta restart the human race.
Now I choose the mountains for a reason. Sure the coasts have fish, BUT they also have the highest Zombie populations. The mountains are already sparsely populated, and yes there ARE geographically isolated areas with towns and such. The more difficult it is for zombies to reach me, the better.
The MRE's are for the bad winters when we have a poor crop. Not every season will be ideal.
The girls at Hooters are more likely to believe my story. And they're cute. I'll save a whole lot of them because in the Zombie Apocalypse there is NO cable.
With nothing else to do, saving the human race will be a welcome alternative to chores.

I am embarrassed that this is as well thought out as it is, but...
7 Miles from here is the Piggly Wiggly Grocery store in a strip mall in the nearby village. It is of sturdy brick construction and has no exterior windows other that two entry doors and is one on each side of the building that can be blocked with a single vehicle each parked across them. Once the doors are blocked shipping pallets from the back would be brought up and inserted between the cars and the doors to prevent "Crawlers". The strip mall also houses a drug store and three restaurants.
Accessing the roof of the grocery store gives you entrance through the roof into those places, even if it involves chopping a hole. There is enough preserved food and water/liquids to last out till the weather turns cold and they freeze up. There is medicine and medical supplies accessable from the pharmacy if the raiding is done from the roof down which avoids parking lot trips.
I have tons of guns and thousands of rounds of ammo. When things die down a bit, (Ha ha) a trip can be made to the nearby National Guard armory to acquire a pair of hummers or something similar as well as a Buffalo full of diesel fuel or a trailer full of jerry cans containing the same. Depending on things a full blown APC could be acquired there. When the weather chills down and the things freeze, either the place will be reinforced or a move will be made.
Anything that isn't already dead and walking that gets in the way of me and my family gets killed. Anything dead and walking that gets in our way gets killed again.

Hunker in the bunker, lots of ammo, and I think Spam tastes just yummy.

Guns scare me. I'm screwed. :-)

BRAINS of course :-)
