I generally run all of the 4 seperate routes to and from work....the town I live in gave up its neghborhood watch program....I tend to be driving by at all hours....and will call if I see something out of the ordinary.

The neighbors seem to appreciate it.....at least the older folks do....they drop off produce....

Sometimes I go to the driveway to get the paper before I start the coffee. If I'm really feeling crazy, I'll move the computer from my office to the deck, or breakfast bar.

I have 7 different routes that I use, and I don't follow any kind of pattern. I may go the same way for 2 weeks straight, then not go that way again for 3 months.

I work all over so my route varies without me trying.

I also change up the time i leave the house and get back, not because I think about it but just not concerned about punctuality.

Been doing almost the same commute for 20 years. Tried all the different routes when I was younger. Now I get on I-5 and it is what it is. Seemed like all those other routes ended up taking damn near as long anyway.

No.  One road.



Only other options flight, boat, or bushwhack.

No not that paranoid. I do make sure that if I have a significant other living with me, that they have a parking space close to the house and in the light.

Currently no womenz living with me, just staying over occasionally, so I don't really give a fuck if anyone knows I'm home or not.

I have two routes to the university, the same distance each, that I like to take to break up the monotony.

I used to, but don't bother anymore with one exception.

If I have to work on Halloween, I like to take the shortcut through the grounds of the abandoned mental hospital.

Kind of tough for that here. Two routes to take, north side of river or south, minimum distance between bridges is 15 miles and only one road north to south 40 miles from I 5.

I'm not afraid of being followed....but just to keep aprised of what's going on around the area.

I like to know of the conditions of the roads....construction going on in the neghborhood....vehicles in the area....etc.

Not paranoid....just observant....

Only 2 routes I can take and one is closed for the next 6 months.   So it looks like my ambushers will find me.  Time to uparmor my camaro.

4 routes.  It depends on whether I want to put up with idiot drivers on the most direct route.

my house, and my neighbors housed were cased a few years back.  My alarm siren kept them at bay (should have put alarm signs up, I was going for the element of surprise).   Can't say the same for my neighbor.



I try to vary leave and arrival times.  not route though.



We need some counter casing tips (getting counter intel on the fools trying to get intel on us!)

If you encounter a threat on one of your routes one day,

do you ever use that route again?

I dunno.....never encountered a "threat"......more than kids tossing rocks at an old out building.....and a vagrent coming out of a barn.

Never ran into anything that would make me change my travel plans.

Nope. I drive the same 9 miles coming and going. I'm not an important enough target.
