I carry a suitcase with clothes in it rather than stuffing them various compartments. I found the suitcase and all my dirty clothes laying in the driveway the next morning. Nothing else missing or damaged ................ since the peculated in that black suitcase in the Texas 100 + sun for a few days, I'm sure opening that suitcase gave them quite a thrill.
