Cautious and Risk and the balance in between. On the extreme - one could choose only gated or secured campgrounds lock everything or even decide not to carry any valuable items, but that would have limit their options and take a lot of the fun. Taking extreme caution may be very limiting. It's like those who scared to fly, or even decide not to drive a car because of accidents. I think that there is an individual fine line for each of us - based on our style and trust and nature. We never locked our house (before we became RVers) and our bike are parked unlocked by the RV. I am not sure that is smart either but it is convenient :) I hope we will never have to face crime and regret our trust. Thanks for bringing it up, and like always - I enjoy reading your blog very much. Nick – I think you are raising an excellent point, and it applies to so many areas in life.

Just goes to show that scum can be inherited. I get so tired of reading articles in the paper where parents/family members say "he was a good kid, wanted to grow up to be a doctor, planned to save humanity, etc." My question always is what the heck were they doing out on the streets after midnight?
