Well I had a strange encounter and not of the fun kind.

I decided to start laundry late today because I knew George was expecting a shirt. It is supposedly out for delievery, but coming from Orlando, about an hour's drive from here. I'm not expecting it until late, if at all. So I decided to start the laundry.
Just in case, I checked the mail first. Nothing in the box worth noting, but that wasn't the creepy part.
About half an hour before, some strange guy approached our house, and parked himself on one of our chairs we have out front. He made up this excuse he was just tired and thought the hhouse was abandonded. He thought no one lived here.
We have four outdoor chairs out front, solar lights all over the flower bed, a welcome mat that says Hello Spring. A hose attached to the house. The outside of the house looks fairly clean, and he thought no one lived here? Really? I don't believe it.
He ran off when he saw me walk out our front door.

I do not blame you for being scared of a stranger coming to your home only to find out that the home he thought was empty was occupied.

He was in range of the doorbell camera, but it didn't alert us someone was on the porch. Even if it had, I wouldn't have known he was still there. Had I not walked out when I did, I may never have known.

He never entered my home or tried to enter, so he isn't considered a squater.

Yeah. I know our yard is overgrown which might give that impression, but we have a lot of stuff a around the house. I didn't really buy the excuse. Had he not fled, I would've called police likely.
