Default Caution

Caution is always in order. There were a couple of incidents a few years ago not too long after we moved here (moved in in Feb. 2004) where some people were accosted when they arrived home. I don't remember if it happened inside the garage or in the driveway, but yes, they did happen. As someone else has stated, we are not immune here. Remember, Villagers are not the only ones using the hospital, entertainment venues, hotels, restaurants, etc. The bigger we get, the more vulnerable we will be. Caution and paranoia are not the same. One is reasonable, the other is not.
