My Security Precaution and Peace of Mind

After reading about the Emergency bag, I like GOOD (Get Out Of Dodge) bag idea but the RV is becoming my home. I realize the important of keeping your records together but off site has always been my option. I guess I thankful for my daughters having big houses.
Another way I try to protect what I have is always be suspicious. That is I always look around at the surrounding ( vehicle, people) and write a license number down or take pictures. It may a picture of a future witness or the vehicle that is used in the crime. I try to leave the impression I'm watching and have information that a security camera will not.
I do like the idea of some kind or sensor with remote control & siren, either motion or switch operated, to monitor the door when in strange parking lots.
We all know that the material things can be replaced but it is peace of mind we are trying to protect.
I'm a firm believer if the door is forced open, there maybe blood on the Welcome Mat.

  • Highly suggest you consider editing your post. You let every RV'r with access to this forum, (like the entire public) know that you have a GOOD (get out of dodge bag). Every RV'r will now look at you for only one reason, to get your GOOD bag. :B

    OK, OK glad you now have "Security Precaution and Peace of Mind"

    Wow, paranoid much? Taking pictures of random people. Is this what happens when you get old?

    ocbms, I gather you are referencing another thread/post? Your post sounds extraordinarily paranoid.
  • If you take down my license number or take pictures of me or my family we will have words.
  • What's your license plate number please? Knowing this will keep me from calling the police about a peeping Tom.....
