Went for a walk yesterday and not only does my route include 3 uphill and 3 downhill I also get very near the high School Campus here. In fact when I go past the gym/band room I use the other side of the street because I choose to be armed. As I was finishing my 1/2 mile walk an unmarked unremarkable van stopped and 2 middle aged man had a few questions for me-NOT belligerent sorta friendly in fact. DO NOT forget I live in rural Missouri. What it boiled down to was the Way I was dressed and until those teachers pointed it out to me I had NOT given it an iota of thought. My ball cap my jacket and my jeans were all black. Even the gloves on my hands were black. They-the teachers-explained a student had called in a suspicious man dressed in black!  Roll Eyes Turns out I was the "suspicious" person in black!  2funny And once I splained to them who I was and who my Daughters are they both remembered me. Thank GOD I didn't have my Black balaclava on yesterday!  uglystupid2 Trust me when I tell you I'd much RATHER be noticed on my Phatt Ghurl.  cooldude NOW it are M/C related!  Wink RIDE SAFE.

Being from that town, and having graduated from that same High School, I understand.

Many years ago when I first move to WY, Rawlins had the state pen.  At that time, it was actually surrounded on three side by house.  Since my wife/kids were still in OR, on a over casted Sunday afternoon, I decided to take a walk on the mountain on the north side of town.  The pen butted up against the Mountain and I had to walk by the fence as I went up.  After a bit, got the feeling someone was watching me and looked back along the ridge I had climbed up.  There were two guys with Bi-nock and long sticks looking at me.  Didn't think much about at the time.  Went on a bit further and decide to head back down by another path.  Finally got down to where houses and roads were.  There as state station wagon pulling up and three guy with shotguns got out.  After looking at me, one of them  told the driver to cancel the lock down, I wasn't one of theirs.   Seems that the residents of the pen wore denim  pants and jackets, which I had on.  If I had known at the time I was on the top of the ridge, I would have gone off the other side just to give them something to do.
