You are SO nice and helpful Ray!
A breathe of fresh air, truly.
(Even in this awkward subject!)
I live in California.
Left coast...
It's just about the end of the grow season.
ANY unusual activity off the beaten path is highly circumspect.
EVERYONE has a cell phone. And anxious to use it!
If anyone were seen with barrels in their vehicle they would be suspect for a meth lab.
If it's not your land, it belongs to someone else.
If not someone else, it belongs to government.
Around here we're not allowed to pass over government land.
We must pay for an 'Adventure Pass' to enter the National Forest areas.
We're technically not allowed to pick up rocks, or plants, in the forest.
Or leave anything behind.
Of course it could be done, but it would be under risk of arrest and incarceration.
Fascinating what things have come to, here.
We are also the most populous state... at any point in time someone is bound to come around the corner.
Chances are they'll have a cell phone, a camera, a deer rifle, or a badge.
Frequently the bomb squad is called out when someone discovers efforts of the Geocachers!
Obviously I'm being far too negative!
I shall desist so I don't poison this thread.
All of you folks are making good presentations.
Best
