+Panther&Pine Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Depending on the age of the person (assuming they are not the police) I make a judgement call. Most adults I explain what I'm doing. Most children I tell them I'm looking for something that I dropped. And welcome to the adventure! Quote Link to comment

+thethompsontribe Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Just tell the truth, they might like to get involved themselves Quote Link to comment
Signor Rosso Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Say you lost your marbles and then ask and see if they want to help you find them. Kidding aside, tell the truth. Those that usually ask want to know what you are doing so just go ahead and tell them! Quote Link to comment

Most children I tell them I'm looking for something that I dropped. And welcome to the adventure! Great Advice! I work in Law Enforcement and today is my very first day of doing this based on "muggleing" if you will a young couple in my area while on patrol. I approached them at 2AM to see what they were doing wandering around and acting completely lost. Well after making sure they were safe and harmless they told me they were looking for a geocache and wanted the coin that was in it to adopt it. I was just floored and had NO idea what to say to that and when they explained it I actually helped them find it. Their up-front approach and honesty PLUS how fun it looked made me research and get my GPS to start off. My first outing is this weekend with my daughter and girlfriend! I will use that advice when dealing with other muggles and my fellow cops.lol. Thanks for the kids advice as well./DOC Quote Link to comment
