EARTHQUAKE HIT & FELT ABOUT 2 MINUTES LONG.

   It was maybe 1:50pm on Tuesday, August 23, 2011 and the Baby & I were sitting in the basement. The concrete wall to the right of me started moving & I literally felt the bones of the house moving & felt the blocks shake. I immediately grabbed the baby and ran outside as fast as I could and you could feel the ground vibrating. I met outside with my Dad who was on the phone with my Uncle in Fredericksburg, VA. and my Uncle Lawrence said there was an EARTHQUAKE coming but it had already reached us, then my Mother drove in and said that the mailboxes were moving back & forth. The Dog & Cat were acting strange. Josie the cat immediately ran up a nearby tree. I had to get under the tree so she would jump to me and she finally did. My Uncle Pat's white truck was moving across the pavement and luckily nothing was damaged and more importantly no one was injured. My 1st experience with an EARTHQUAKE & I was honestly a bit scared. We are nothing, we are not in charge, the Mother Nature is in control and that was just a 5.9. The Quake struck in Mineral, VA. the Quake started from 3.7 miles down in the Earth, which is pretty shallow, the ones on the west coast start at 20 - 30 miles deep. I never seen my Father react the way he did, I honestly think he was scared.

Still Caught "Off-Guard" & Speechless

   OK, I was actually working on another blog, when I'm in my apartment alone when I hear a moderately loud "movement" sound from under the door. My apartment entrance door is about 18 ft. away & on my left side I still am hearing noises in the basement area outside my apartment entrance door. I have already looked to see if my cat is the culprit but she is outside right now. I wish I had cameras to mount in every corner of this place, I feel like I would at least see things that are moving to make these sounds I'm hearing. There is no single person at the house right now except for me. OK, now there's 3 steps on the staircase and a long pause...................>>>>
   Well, I just wanted to record this for the blog. It began at/around 2:20pm, the noises at the door, the basement "shuffling" sounds, the 3 steps on the stairs & the ever-present white shapes darting around the room in my peripherals. Again, nothing malicious in nature, I would just love to know what the hell my Wife & I are living with..... Until next time.

Well, I Thought I put this Blog to Rest....But..

   My Uncle Pat is living in the basement of my Father's duplex apartments & it's about 100 feet from where my Wife & I currently live. I've stated this before but my Family lives in a nice, large basement apartment that I built in my Mother & Father's new house. I decided to wrap up the blog due to an end in paranormal activity, well it was a little premature. I am only keeping this online blog for my journal, a reference point, that's all it's ever been. Some have found entertainment in it but I only write about what I witness or witness second-hand, so I don't find it entertaining, I find it very interesting as to the nature of the phenomina that occurs and maybe how it could possibly be explained but other than that, it's just what happens here. Facts, as a matter of fact, since he has moved in next door, he visits uninvited and leaves whenever he pleases.... but he does not take his attachments with him. My Wife & I listen to unexplained noises every single night, we watch the door rattle, shake & flash lights across the walls. My Wife came out of the bathroom last night and said, "What's Wrong"! I was calmly sitting at the table online and I didn't even know what the hell she was talking about. She said that as soon as she entered the bathroom, she heard her name called in a very urgent fashion, as if I had cut myself or something of that nature.
   Well, since my vagabond Uncle has returned, I'm sure there will be plenty to write about.
