"Another caution or two while we're being paranoid.  I have, as do
many others, a small GPS navigator with "favorite places" including
"home" stored in it.  I make "home" a few doors down the street in
case someone obtains the GPS, checks "home" and rushes there to take
whatever I left."

My car GPS turns off when the car does and requires a password to
re-energize.  Same for cell.

Hope those people a "few doors" down are not gone on a trip or to a funeral
when you burglars show up.  Even worse, might be if they are elderly, alone,
and home.
