It goes with me unless it's a prohibited area like a hospital or court house. They have scanners and they will take it.
Yep, that was definitely a problem for my wife until she completely retired in July this year. We live in the country too, and my wife drove 30 miles each way back and forth to work at the county
courthouse (with scanners at the doors) for almost 25 years! And even after that, she turned right around and went back to work part-time for our church - which was also in town. It wasn't that my wife couldn't carry while she was at work at the church, it was just that one of her jobs was to pick up the church mail at the post office a couple of times a week, so she had no choice except to lock her gun in her Jeep while she went inside.
Some of the folks that respond to these types of threads saying they
never leave their EDCs in their vehicles either don't carry all of the time when they're not at home, or they lead completely different lives than my wife and I do. We live 25 miles from town, and whenever we need to go there, we try to get as many things done as possible. A trip to town often involves a stop at the supermarket, the bank, a sporting goods or gun store, the insurance office, a restaurant, and/or a hardware store. However, a trip to town for us sometimes includes a stop at the courthouse, the post office, the doctor's office, or lately the Social Security office - none of which we can carry in. So as much as we don't like doing it, we sometimes have to lock our EDCs in our vehicles.
I don't worry about it all that much though. As I said in my earlier post in this thread, the last time my vehicle was broken into was when I was living in San Diego, and the wanna-be thief was after my 8-track. If you're old enough to remember 8-tracks, you know that was a while ago.
BTW, even though Idaho is a type of "constitutional carry" state, my wife and I still took the class and got our Idaho "Enhanced" Concealed Carry licenses. One of the reasons we did that was because we sometimes go on-campus at Idaho State University (which is
also in town) and an Idaho Enhanced Concealed Carry license is required for legal carry there.
