I was early one evening, I had been outside putting trash in my can. As I headed back to the porch a van was going slowly down the road. We live in a rural area. They stopped and called me over. I wouldn't. So they asked for directions, I gave as good as I could, . They were driving around and around our area. I could not understand why they did not take my directions. I called the police and reported them. Come to find out, they were robbing homes in the area. I was able to give a good description of the vehicle and part of the license plate. I don't know if they caught them, but, I too have my gun nearby.
Glad that you are safe! Seems more and more people look to rob homes in rural areas
