Farmtown is in full-swing right now, and the 'Rents spend a lot of time out in the garden every day. They've started doing one simple thing without me having to ask or remind them, and that makes me proud that they are thinking in "security mode". Whenever they go out to the garden, or just go outside for that matter, they've gotten in the habit of locking the back door.
With the current rash of "clipboard people" going through neighborhoods acting like they're selling something door-to-door, we've all got to be alert and take precautions, and locking your door when you're outside is something we all should be doing.
And I'll take this one step further; while you're in the house, you might as well keep the doors locked, too. One of us is usually in the family room, and you can see out the French doors and notice if anyone pulls in the drive or is walking up the driveway, and we used to think this was enough. Not anymore. You hate to feel like you're on lockdown, but we can't be too safe anymore.
