Your right, it's a sick feeling and something that pops back into your mind every time you go back to your place.
I went to a sign shop and had a few "internet linked video surveillance" signs made....about $25.00. I made up a security company name and logo. I've not had a problem since.

A few summers ago I made a decision. It was a beautiful day, prime time for spending time on the water, when I found my children, nieces and nephews all watching television. My sister and I agreed to stop the cable service and remove the TV's. The only high tech gizmo we have now is a small sound dock that plays your I-Phone music. We keep it in a closet while we are away. However, we did leave a huge tube type TV and VCR in full view. I would imagine when a potential thief looks through a window at that TV he/she decides to find better picking. Low tech seems to be a good solution.

A friend of mine lives in south Florida. He keeps his 28' boat at a storage lot that's had a history of thefts. He had it fitted with a GPS that's cell phone enabled. He was at a meeting in Arizona when his cell phone notified him that his boat was moving. He excused himself from the meeting, called law enforcement, and the thieves were caught 3 miles from the storage area. It's pretty pricey, but works.
