It occurred to me I’ve never done a Black History Month post before. I try not to distinguish ghosts any differently than I distinguish people. (That is to say, I try to see people for the people they are, not for the color of their skin, their race, religious beliefs,Continue Reading

The following is a reprint of a post I originally published on September 11, 2009: In Remembrance of 9/11: Haunt Jaunting to Ground Zero.

If all has gone as planned, today we should be docked in Key West. (I must confess. I actually wrote this before we left to post while we’re gone. That’s why the “if all has gone as planned” statement.) At any rate, I thought since I was in Florida, I’dContinue Reading

This week both Autumnforest of Ghost Hunting Theories and Julie at Above the Norm made posts concerning Chernobyl. Good topic as it was also the subject of one of the investigations on Destination Truth this week. In fact, Julie’s post was about the DT episode. Autumnforest’s was a video fromContinue Reading

This afternoon my husband, Wayne, and I made an unexpected Haunt Jaunt to the Sam Davis Home in Smyrna, TN. It’s not far from the hospital where I’m getting my radiation treatments, which Wayne accompanied me to today because he unexpectedly got the day off. Anyway, I figured if nothingContinue Reading
