Especially with the heightened Security Status, I am not at all surprised about this. "Orange", one level below "Red" carries ALOT of extra and specific security measures at all kinds of places that I never even thought of until I was watching CNN and stuff. "Red" alert will amount to a virtual lock-down of all government facilities, borders, transportation, etc. We all need to be very aware of OUR OWN actions (which may seem suspicious to others) as well as watching for suspicious activities of others. On a much lighter note, my husband and I just finished the first "phase" of a website for the Jeep Posse. If you are curious about it, visit www.ycjp.org and check it out! We will be building the site more in the future. Our Posse has a bi-monthly newsletter for which I write a geocaching column!

When we arrived, a very concerned security guard met us and asked us what we were doing. We explained geocaching and he seemed fine with it however he adamently explained how the fence of the water treatment facility was considered off-limits. The cache was placed on the back of a no trespassing sign on the fence. He asked us to remove the cache and let others know that we cannot place any caches on their fence especially in the light of today's heightened security. It seems that the previous few cachers who were talking by the fence after caching brought out the Mesa police helicopter, according to the security guard. (And you know who you are.) We know we are harmless, but you should have seen how nervous this security guard was. We removed the cache and apologized profusely for the cache placement. He was fine with that as long as we let other! cachers know. Please don't place anything on a fence when there are no trespassing signs, especially if it is something as security conscious like a water treatment facility.Add photos to your messages with MSN 8.
