My wifes uncle called, he found a axe head uncovered on the riverbank. He says it dates back to the 1800's.
Why was he down digging at the river? :hmmm:

Nah, I don't believe in wizards and that silliness, I'll stick with Mami, best voodoo priestess around these parts...She said she could come and put Old Black John at peace if he was really there for $200.00. I think a good investment?

Now I don't like all that voodoo stuff...and I won't stop you from using her skills....but I just don't like all the voodoo...

It just...seems creepy.... Like it could cause more problems than it could solve.

No, he wasn't digging, just stuff gets uncovered from time to time due to water flow and flooding. I metal detect all the rivers, lot of Revolutionary and CW history.....

She does voodoo stuff I guess, more a spiritual talker, but a good baptist.....

I have't been down in a few days, but nothing on my cam that doesn't make sense, a deer or two.

The only thing very strange the last time I walked Bear there, he won't go near the bridge. I leash him now through the woods, but let him run the trail. He got to the bridge, looked at it and ran. I thought he ran off, but he ran all the way back home. Something down there has him spooked.

Again, not that I believe in ghost, but the ghost hunting group is running my pics through there software and said they will set up a cam.

If I get something new, I'll post it....Maybe the next full moon if it's Old Black John...

Anything new ??

Had a bit of an ''experience'' yesterday. Went to the workshop yesterday evening to paint the wheel rims. No one was at work since there was a holiday yesterday.
Well, the ghost stories were true. There was a lot of strange noises, that were simply the compressed air system, regular cooling systems for the CNCs and local cat population.
Except the footsteps from the workshop above that was locked and that one of the rims fell of the workbench despite laying flat :o

I need to rent some of that equipment :hmmm:

Armistead 11-02-13 10:23 AM

No, nothing......even Bear seems normal there now. Maybe it's a full moon deal...

Maybe he only haunts the bridge on the anniversery of his demise?



Strange that your dog was so freaked out before, but got over it pretty quick.

It reminds me of when I used to take care of my sister's dogs once in a while. She had two chocolate labs and I was walking them around the neighborhood one night. People had a lot of holloween decorations out. Mostly the dogs would ignore them; they don't move or make any sound, after all. However, one yard had a large Frankenstein near the sidewalk, which was reaching over as if to grab you. Well, I guess this one appeared very sinister to them, and they were barking at it, and very hesitent to go past. It was funny to me, of course, but not to them. Seemed odd, that they could tell all the other tricks were fake, and still be fooled by this.

Not to hijack the thread, but I've witnessed similar reactions on my dogs.
I actually had to change my dog walking route because of it.
I would take them past a large garden with scare crows at night, and they would freak out. They'd growl, assume an aggressive posture, bark madly, and I would have to drag them away from the garden. I laughed really hard the first time.
This is very interesting when you consider the dog exists because of human intervention. And while dogs will either ignore or give chase to just about any creature, they instinctively assume a rather defensive posture towards a human silhouette.
It makes me wonder...

I still feel on edge walking there, but just because I can't explain what happened. All joking aside, I'm 100% sure something went on that first night, just never will be able to explain it...Strange, your sure you run up on a stranger, then nothing....

Yea Bear is fine there now.....takes off as he did, but I take the Tibetans now as well as another big cat was spotted about a mile away, they did foot print studies and say another big exotic....

The Tibetans are indeed a good idea. You don't know wether that was a loony anti-social bloke, a vagrant, or some criminal hiding away from Police. And definitelly, by all means, do take your "mistress" with you. If you run into a big cat, your "mistress" is the only really good help you'll get. You'd feel guilty if the Tibetans were killed in that fight.
Stay sharp. :up:

That's a good idea. It doesn't hurt to be careful.
