Lots of various discussions recently about RV security.  Here is what I did!

I heard about this new simple alarm system, perhaps here on this site.  I thought I would share! All I do is just put out my "Red Neck" alarm system every time I leave the trailer.   I went to "good will" and bought a size 14 beat-up pair of work boots.  I place them outside next to the trailer entry steps, along side them a rusty ax.  I used a small piece of barb wire, to hold a note written on card board,  I attached it to the ax!  Reads:  "Bubba, when you wake after your nap", "put your boots on", and head down yonder and get that pig, I bought from the farmer.  I want it "butchered right away" so I can put on supper"!  

No thefts so far!
