I am not advocating walking up to a group of bad*ss-looking men in the Arizona desert, "brandishing" a handgun, and yelling, "Ola, dirtbags! You runnin' drugs?"
Carrying a weapon on the road doesn't make me feel safer; it just increases my chances should the day go to hell in a hurry. You keep a low profile and don't expose yourself to potentially bad situations (or people).
And I am not trying to make this into a gun thread, either; I just don't want anyone to kick me out of the campfire because they think I may "go off" with a couple of six-shooters.
What I will say is that I am just as cautious about my surroundings at Cloudland Canyon down the road from here as I would be in the wild country. To me, it just makes good sense. If I ever hear my RV door being kicked in in the middle of the night, I just want more protection than three Doxies. No matter how cute the little boogers are...
