About a month ago, a thieving lifeguard was messing with my bag. I yelled at him and he dropped it. My reader didn't break, but the $70 lighted cover broke. There were not any witnesses, except for my husband and I, so the univ is refusing to reimburse me for the cover.
I just can't come up with a good solution to hot weather and leaving it someplace secure.

I keep a styrofoam shipping box from Omaha Steaks in my trunk - to put stuff in when it's really hot - keeps stuff remarkably protected even without adding any ice or cold sources. You might try it for storing valuables in a hot car.
