rv interior surveillance camera...

: My wife, daughter and myself attended the Tucson Bluegrass Festival the first weekend of November....thursday through sunday.
We arrived on Thursday and ended back home in Spring Valley about 7:15 pm Sunday, Nov 2.

We had a wonderful time visiting friends, making a few new ones and jamming


We packed up everything Sunday afternoon and left at 3:30, pm
Around 7:30 Sunday, when we arrived back at home, Geneva found her purse was missing.. She last saw her purse approx 5:30 pm Saturday, on the top shelf in our RV closet
We left at that time to walk over to the Agave Restaurant to have dinner with some friends for his birthday. We had a great meal and a bit of gaming at the casino before we went back to the RV.
Then Geneva & Cori discovered the back, right side door on our RV was open We had left the solid door open, with the screen closed. This was to allow the cool breeze to affect the two dogs we hav.e
Obviously a bad mistake!
]Upon investigation, she also discovered the bathroom had been occupied, used. The seat cover on the commode was down...and the door was open to our bathroom...something we NEVER do..
We thought perhaps a bluegrass friend had needed to use the bathroom while we were gone.
We thought no more about it until the purse was discovered missing today (Sunday afternoon.
We drove on home, discovered the theft and spent about 90 minutes tearing EVERYTHING out and piling EVERYTHING on the floors while we went through EVERYTHING! in the RV.
Geneva and Cori reconstructed all activities we had concerning the lost purse.
Geneva never carries her purse into a restaurant or Casino. She has a "fanny pack" that contains about $100 in quarters, along with a few other things she may need while being away from her RV for this short time.
She had several hundred dollars in her missing purse. She also had all my pain, anti- nausea and other various medications needed for my Kidney Cancer treatment, along with medications needed for her bad back and moderately damaged aortic and mitral heart valves.
Her biggest loss was a letter from our son that he wrote to her shortly before his untimely death March, 2004, in which he was expressing his love and concern for 2004.
[Pictures of her deceased mother with all her 4 sisters and herself are also very sentimental. Photos of our 'adopted' grandchildren. The Bost Family, are also dear to her heart.
I am having a hard time containing my RAGE towards the anonymous slimy bastard who has done this. I would enjoy hurting this person VERY MUCH![/font]
Please remind and caution all bluegrass festival and jam attendees there are rotten bastards out there who will take advantage of a person/family without any second thought of how their nasty actions will affect this family, both collectively and individually.

I doubt if this was done by a close bluegrass friend, but really do think it was done by a bluegrass person who knew enough about us to expect a few drugs that can be used in a manner not intended by the prescribing doctor.
well they hit the jackpot when they came upon Geneva's purse...money, drivers license, credit cards, pain drugs, anti-bladder spasm drugs, anti-nausea drugs, checkbooks, bank acct numbers, medical insurance cards, auto insurance cards, Social Security Card (original) and so much more.


God help the thief if I find him/her first. They will spend a few days in extended care before they are booked into the County Jail, I can assure you![/font]

I have a lot of rage building while I see, comfort and hear my wife grieving the loss of so many dear, personal momentos.


ps: Monday, we discovered all our daughter's meds missing, also. a lot of small items re gone, also.


I truly hope to catch this thief someday.


QUESTION:
SO...what kind of hunting, gaming, surveillance camea would you guys reccommend to leave in RV when unattended?[/font]
Is there anything that can be programmed for lapsed time intervals, movement, sound, etc?[/font]


I will send this slimeball a cd of "The Banjos That Destroyed The World" so he/she can enjoy the discordant tunes while being intertained by BUBBA in the BIGHOUSE![/font]

any advice is appreciated...I feel this is someone I know personally ( I have no idea at this point who it may be) who will ,do it again.[/font]
thank you for listening...bill

That's a sad state of affairs. I've heard of groups of dirt-bags that work big events like that from concerts to horse shows, etc, and break into whatever they can especially if it takes place in a larger city. Years ago a guy on an RV forum said they caught some low-lifes whose main event was working a big resturant chain parking lot strictly over in the RV parking area because most people (including myself) don't usually have their trailer door locked when they're going down the road.
As far as a video camera, I'd bet they make one that is motion activated only that would work well in a trailer. I know they make them for deer scouting purposes that you attach to a tree, etc.

I did a google search with motion +activated +security +camera and came up with several solutions, some pretty affordable.

THIS ONE IS UNDER $200

THIS ONE OFFERS A FEW OPTIONS

If you do your own search you can look up a bunch of these. You can probably even find them on eBay.
