[AZ-Observing] Re: Cherry Rd -Friday Night

It's a shame your fears kept you from observing especially after driving all 
that way.  I've observed/camped/hiked alone on public lands quite often with 
enjoyment of the solitude and also lovely opportunities of sharing the 
experience with passing strangers that soon become friends.  On the other 
hand daily life in the city is chock full of threatening exposed strangers 
on cell phones who may or may not be "Cocked and Locked" with their "little 
friends" but they certainly can't prevent me from taking  full-tilt 
advantage of city life while I'm in it even if I don't have a "little 
friend" to leave home without.

Thanks Stan. Fortunately I wouldn't think a truck driver as much of a
threat. It was interesting that he stopped his truck about a quarter mile
down the road and walked back, thus leaving himself rather exposed. I drove
past him at one point and he seemed more interested in my license plate than
anything else. With all the shell casings I saw laying around and the fact
the mailbox at the stop sign was shot up, I'm sure the ranchers have issues
with vandals, etc. and are leery of strangers.  As for me, like my American
Express card, there is another "little friend" I never leave home without. I
was "Cocked and Locked" the whole time.

Jimmy,
If you are reading this it means you got back okay. It would worry me to
be all alone and to have a complete stanger talking in a cell phone
looking at me all the time.

something). If no one here by 1830 I'm heading back.
