Light came on 3 00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.080 and I did that with a glent big thing running 4 00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:17.000 across the yard, not a good sight man or something. 5 00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:18.359 I look like a man. I don't know what it 6 00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:20.359 was across the yard. 7 00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:22.800 It seems to be a big foot leaning against a 8 00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:24.120 tree in a wooden area. 9 00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:27.440 I have seen plenty of people with big feet, but 10 00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:28.760 not bigfoot. 11 00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:31.039 Tree minks and rush. He sees about seven and seven 12 00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:34.439 and a half foot tall sass watch looking back at him, 13 00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:34.759 and that. 14 00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:36.799 Kind of looks like a wolf, but not like a 15 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:37.600 neighborhood dog. 16 00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:39.560 Pick these stores for what they are, and hopes that 17 00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:43.280 maybe if it's out there, then't show me. Yeah, and 18 00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:46.920 says he might have caught the mythical Cuba Cabra creature 19 00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:50.079 terrorizing his chickens. It's like a grunt and a knock. 20 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.759 It's like a wh I think there's kind of a 21 00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.280 cultural tendency for people to want to make Bigfoot a 22 00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:59.439 quote unquote monster.

I had a few things. Yeah, because I 54 00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:08.000 usually I am very pretty I'm very good at remembering 55 00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:13.280 half the stuff. So so here's something I do like 56 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:18.240 to ask. Uh, the whole subject of bigfoot is in general. Uh, 57 00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:22.280 were you a believer before all this that took place? 58 00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:23.840 Or Yeah? 59 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.479 No, I absolutely believe in cryptids and bigfoot has always 60 00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:31.680 been something I believed in. 61 00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:33.919 It's just not it's just a fact. 62 00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.080 Yeah. Was there something that got you interested in the 63 00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:38.639 first place? 64 00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:50.520 Probably the the Gimlin file, the Gimlin video. Yeah yeah, 65 00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.199 when they used that on the six million Dollar Man. 66 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:56.599 Oh yeah, yeah yeah. 67 00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:01.319 And I didn't know that that was actual foot until 68 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.560 I was an adult, you know, seeing it walking when 69 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:09.520 they show it walking, So it was it was it 70 00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:11.800 got me interested. You know, is there really something like 71 00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:14.879 this with them finding foot, feet prints, things like that. 72 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:17.560 There's got to be other things out here besides us. 73 00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.879 Oh yeah, I tell you what. As I tell people, 74 00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.600 that's a big part of what got me involved is 75 00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:30.240 that footage. Yeah, I mean consider the time period, you know, 76 00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:33.839 in nineteen sixty seven. I mean that was usued with 77 00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:37.160 a sixteen millimeter camera, right, I mean I think I 78 00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:38.720 think that was pretty good for back then. 79 00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:42.920 You know, I thought so they didn't really have the 80 00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:46.439 technology to they could do some things to alter them, 81 00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:51.480 but you know, they didn't have quite the technology that 82 00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:55.199 they have now. So I always believed it was completely real, 83 00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:56.399 and now they show it's real. 84 00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:06.279 So right absolutely, hold on, say all right, yeah, so yeah, 85 00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:08.120 we got a couple of people checking in saying hello, 86 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:15.319 all right, very cool. All right. Yeah, So because you know, 87 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.680 we get into a lot of different discussions when it 88 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:22.480 comes to patters the footage because you know, something like 89 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:27.839 that has been I guess debated would be the right 90 00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:31.879 way to put that, you by so many different sources. 91 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.639 You know. Then again, if there's so much to look 92 00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:37.279 for a look at back then during that time, that 93 00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:43.079 kind of helped support it too. It's like, I mean, 94 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.279 what was the best technology that they had or I 95 00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.720 shouldn't say technology, but what was the most advanced kind 96 00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:51.199 of crossover they had back then? Well, that video footage 97 00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:54.360 came out in nineteen sixty seven. Right, look at the 98 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.839 plan of the eighth came out March twenty eighth of 99 00:05:56.959 --> 00:05:58.000 nineteen sixty eight. 100 00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:01.920 Right, so yeah, yeah, it was more matted the fur 101 00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:06.720 it was fake and it was matted looking, so you 102 00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:07.160 can tell. 103 00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:17.959 Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely So so kind of moving ahead 104 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:23.560 of the Uh, you were recently down in Stuart, Virginia. 105 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:28.000 Yeah, my best friend and I go down to Faerrystone 106 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:33.560 Park or near the park to collect fairy stones. And 107 00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:37.040 so we had been down about two weeks ago, had 108 00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:40.399 gone down and then I went down Saturday to collect 109 00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:41.079 fairy stones. 110 00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.560 Now I've never been to that park, but I actually 111 00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:47.399 earlier today I looked it up and it was it's 112 00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:50.399 nearby a couple of locations where I've been to, okay 113 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.480 several times with my previous company. I used to do 114 00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:56.120 a lot of deliveries down that way, right, and uh 115 00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:00.000 so yeah, it was uh you know, when I looked 116 00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:02.399 up the park, I said, what is this park? Look 117 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.000 it up hit maps and I was like, wow, yeah, 118 00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.279 just like the rest of the area, it's not but woods, 119 00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:09.399 you know it is. 120 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:13.160 It's just on the backside of Floyd, Virginia. 121 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:15.240 Yeah. Oh yeah, there's. 122 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:18.920 Like the big mountain between them. It's in the middle 123 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:21.759 of nowhere. I mean it takes wow. If you go 124 00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:23.720 the Floyd Way, it takes forever to get there. If 125 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.959 you go through Martinsville down two twenty and five eighty one, 126 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:30.480 it takes you kind of right to the park. 127 00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:32.319 And it's not a bad drive. 128 00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:36.560 Right, Yeah, because right where Stuart and Floyd is, you know, 129 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.000 there's a little gap there. But I want to say 130 00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:41.839 it was more in Floyd. It could have been part 131 00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:44.879 of Stuart, Virginia. I know three or four years ago, 132 00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:47.720 I was down that way with an old girlfriend and 133 00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:52.519 we end up going to it's called Buffalo Mountains ziplines. 134 00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:59.000 And yeah, it's actually right on where their zip line is. 135 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.600 It's basically right on the part of the Blue Ridge 136 00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:03.399 almost it borders the Blue Ridge. 137 00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:05.199 I'm sure at some elevation. 138 00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:10.120 Uh well, I mean well, yes, and no, I mean 139 00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:11.879 like the way the way the zip line Rhyns. I 140 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.120 mean you go flying down on big longer extended hill. 141 00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:17.360 It's actually supposed to be one of the largest zip 142 00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:20.040 lines out there. They used to be set up, Yeah, 143 00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.639 they used to be set up. I don't remember the 144 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:25.279 state that was somewhere out West, you know, so they 145 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:27.519 used to be known as one of the biggest zip 146 00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:30.680 lines out there. And but what was cool about us 147 00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.519 one here? When we went there, of course, the first 148 00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:35.200 thing we see when we pull into the park lot 149 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.679 is a big, giant bigfoot cut out up against the post. 150 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:43.759 I was like, Oh, that's so cool. And then yeah, 151 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:47.279 then you walk inside where you know, you get registered 152 00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:49.840 and everything, and where all their equipment is and a 153 00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:52.200 big another big giant painting on the wall of. 154 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:55.159 Big Fluss said they it's a what's what's up with 155 00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:57.519 bigfoot with these guys? So we end up talking to 156 00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.159 the owner and he started telling us about, yeah, has 157 00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:03.200 been big sighting in this area right here, and I 158 00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:03.919 have no idea. 159 00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:07.080 Oh yeah, I mean that was just one of the 160 00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:09.799 little things we've heard. That wasn't actually report, that was 161 00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:12.720 just an information that he was sharing with us. But 162 00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.000 I have heard other sightings in that general area, some 163 00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.919 actually fairly recent. And the thing is, I don't know 164 00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:26.399 the exact pinpoint location compared to where you had yours, 165 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:32.120 But I am in connection with that girl she lives 166 00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:33.919 down there because she she stands out on her back 167 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:38.799 courch or deck or something, and she hears these weird vocalizations, 168 00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:40.960 and I will tell you some of them have been 169 00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.960 very strange. Then again, on the other hand, she sent 170 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:47.080 me other ones, and I'm listening to them, and then 171 00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:50.120 these particular ones. I'm like, I asked her, I said, 172 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.639 you live near a farm, because I know there's a 173 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.799 lot of farms down She's like, she said, I don't know. 174 00:09:57.159 --> 00:09:59.919 She said, I don't think that the nearest farm bob 175 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.679 about a mile or something like that.

And there's a place called 208 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.840 fairy Stone Pit Stop. It's a gas station and you 209 00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.080 park at the gas station and it's just a little 210 00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:49.679 trail that you walk in and you can kind of 211 00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:51.960 I think you can. I think there's a waterfall, maybe 212 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.399 that you can go in and see. I've never made 213 00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.919 it past maybe, like I don't even go a quarter 214 00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.519 mile in there because there's so many good spots for 215 00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:03.120 me to hunt, you know, the stones, So I just 216 00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:05.759 keep kind of close to the beginning of the trail. 217 00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:12.120 Huh. So uh were you by yourself when you were 218 00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:12.600 doing all this? 219 00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:13.480 Yeah? 220 00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:18.639 Oh, oh, okay, that's that's all right because for some reason, 221 00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:20.519 I mom given attention. You're down there with your friend 222 00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:21.360 and you. 223 00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:23.720 Know, well, I have a friend that goes with me. 224 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:27.360 She was with me two weeks ago, and she was 225 00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.159 and nothing happened then. But I was by myself this 226 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.799 last time when this went down. 227 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:37.320 All right, I'll tell you what. Let's not keep the 228 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.919 audience waiting the morca. I know they're they're interested in 229 00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:42.600 learning about this and hearing about this. So if you 230 00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:44.399 want to kind of give us a backstory on what 231 00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:46.840 you were doing and then what led up to everything. 232 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.679 So, like I said, I do really believe in Bigfoot 233 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:55.639 and or soft Squatch, whatever they are. And I've been 234 00:12:55.679 --> 00:13:01.360 following Trish Packett. She has been on the podcast Flash 235 00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.399 of Beauty and they had that movie Flash of Beauty. 236 00:13:06.480 --> 00:13:10.840 So now it's a podcast, and she had made mentioned 237 00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:14.440 that she's had a lot of experiences and that we 238 00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:19.039 need to not be scared, be curious, and we need 239 00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:22.519 to change our mindset. And so in hearing her say that, 240 00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:25.080 I was like, yeah, maybe she's right about. 241 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:25.279 That, you know. 242 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:27.559 And she said if you put your intentions out there, 243 00:13:27.639 --> 00:13:31.240 good intentions, or that hey i'm here, do you know 244 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:38.600 I'm here, that they will respond. And so two weeks ago, 245 00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:43.840 when I went down I did that. I just said, hey, 246 00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:45.799 i'm here. If y'all want to come help us find 247 00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:49.399 fairy stones, come on out, just half heartedly, you know, 248 00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:53.720 and jokingly, you know. And when I got down there 249 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:57.120 this time, immediately upon walking in, I did the same thing. 250 00:13:57.279 --> 00:14:02.159 I said, I'm back if you if anybody's here, you know, wants. 251 00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:03.639 To come out, make themselves known. 252 00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:06.320 If you want to help me hunt stones, you know, 253 00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:07.559 I'll be here for a while. 254 00:14:08.480 --> 00:14:09.559 I just that's all said. 255 00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:14.919 And there was one family there when I got there 256 00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:19.600 and I was hunting stones. They didn't didn't know what 257 00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.240 they were looking for, and so I helped them for 258 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:25.320 about an hour and a half. I helped them find stones. 259 00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:27.240 They had three little girls, and so I'm helping them 260 00:14:27.279 --> 00:14:30.360 pick stones up and showing them which ones are which, 261 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.720 and I got done helping them and I said, all right, 262 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:38.279 I'm going to go find some for myself. And so 263 00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.000 I found a spot and I started digging, and I 264 00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:43.919 found a bunch that I did not need, didn't want 265 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:47.480 for jewelry, and so I I in my mind, I said, 266 00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:49.240 you know, I'm going to leave them for somebody else. 267 00:14:49.360 --> 00:14:50.960 I'm not going to put them back in the ground, 268 00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:53.240 but I'll just leave them for someone else to find 269 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.600 and that way they can have the experience too. And 270 00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:01.440 I got done with that. But while I was there, 271 00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:04.960 I'm sorry. While I was there digging in that spot, 272 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.080 I just kind of in my mind thought. 273 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:12.120 Are you here? And I just halfheartedly jokingly in my mind, 274 00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:15.960 you know, are you here? And then all of a sudden, 275 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:17.799 I heard this really loud. 276 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.679 Clock and there's nobody else up in there with me 277 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:25.000 except that one family, and they were getting ready to leave, 278 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:30.559 and I jumped up immediately and went, yes, you're here, 279 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:34.440 and I just made that's I just got excited. Maybe 280 00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:38.159 maybe it was bigfoot, maybe it wasn't. Okay, So I 281 00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:44.120 went on to picking my stones, and as I went 282 00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:46.039 back down to the trail, there was a little lady 283 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:49.000 there with two kids, and she didn't know what she 284 00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:52.159 was looking for either. And I had just I had 285 00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:54.519 just walked past this, you know, I just walked up 286 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:56.480 in there. So I had been looking around all the 287 00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:59.320 roots because that's where the stones are. They're in the 288 00:15:59.399 --> 00:16:03.559 root system, and because it's very rutted out in there 289 00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:07.000 because of rain, it's kind of a really kind of 290 00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:10.200 a steep pitch. And so I had been looking at 291 00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:12.639 all of the root systems that as I'm walking up 292 00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:15.679 in there, and when I came down, I saw this 293 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:16.279 little lady. 294 00:16:16.320 --> 00:16:18.759 She was telling me she was from Ashland, Virginia. 295 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:21.639 Oh yeah, I grew up north from there. 296 00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.399 She saw me she's from Ashland, and she introduced me 297 00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.679 to her kids, and I was showing them how to 298 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.399 find the stones and where they were, and started helping 299 00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:33.759 them a little bit, and all of a sudden, she goes, hey, 300 00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:36.840 what's that? And I said, what do you mean? And 301 00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:41.759 she looked down and beside this tree on a root 302 00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:43.639 was a tiny like. 303 00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:45.159 The size of a ford hook. 304 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:50.320 Butterbean or lima bean was a little stone and it 305 00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:57.840 was painted, intricately painted. And I didn't think anything of it, 306 00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:02.039 and She's like, oh, it's only been two families. And 307 00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:05.079 I just walked past this very tree and it just 308 00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:08.839 looked at its roots because I'm looking for stones there 309 00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:11.920 and it had just rained, so that was perfect timing. 310 00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:16.680 So she looks at the stone. It had red white 311 00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.400 and blue. It was red white and blue, and it 312 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:23.720 looked like kind of like an old symbol of the Patriots. 313 00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:25.720 That's what I thought of when I saw it. That 314 00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:28.559 was the first cop that came in my mind was Patriots. 315 00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:32.240 And I told her, I said take it, you keep it. 316 00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:40.240 And it wasn't until this morning, two o'clock in the 317 00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:45.640 morning that it dawned on me what had happened. That 318 00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:49.759 I had just experienced a gift, but I gave the 319 00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:53.960 gift away, if that makes sense. 320 00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:58.680 Yeah, I've seen other on a flash of beauty. 321 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:01.000 As a matter of fact, there was a lady that 322 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:05.039 had her cat had died and she was very distraught. 323 00:18:05.960 --> 00:18:08.920 She went out to her car one morning and went 324 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:11.680 to get in and there was a painted stone with 325 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:17.839 a cat on it, you know, kind of strange. Another 326 00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:22.519 lady got had a heart, had a bypass surgery, and 327 00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.119 after about six weeks went out to do hanging some laundry, 328 00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:29.680 and there was a heart, like a rock shaped heart 329 00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:36.839 sitting at her clothesline, and they had all experienced bigfoots before. 330 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:39.039 So I kind of put the two and two together 331 00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:41.720 to say, oh, wait a minute, I think this. I 332 00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:44.880 think they left me a gift. Now, whether they did 333 00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:47.279 or not, I don't know, but there was no one 334 00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:51.119 else in there. I had already passed this tree, I 335 00:18:51.160 --> 00:18:54.519 had already checked its root systems. How did that little stone. 336 00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:56.599 Get there right exactly? 337 00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:00.319 You know, like twenty minutes twenty thirty minutes after I've 338 00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:03.359 already looked at it. And the little lady didn't put 339 00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:05.480 it there, And there's nobody else in there because they 340 00:19:05.519 --> 00:19:08.079 would have had to have come past me to get 341 00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:14.880 anywhere I would have been there. So that's that's my experience. 342 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:18.319 I know it sounds kind of choppy a little bit, 343 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:22.880 but I felt like I felt like it was an 344 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.759 experience that bigfoot put it there for me because I 345 00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:30.200 was giving the whole time I was in there, I 346 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:32.680 was giving. I was giving to other families, giving to 347 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.279 other people. I left rocks, you know, for anyone else 348 00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:40.640 that came around, and my intentions were all good and giving, 349 00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:44.400 and so I think what was left for me, so 350 00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:48.680 very interest that was. That was that's my second experience. 351 00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.240 I've heard the woman's screen before. 352 00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:55.680 Yeah, you know, like like way down in the same 353 00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:57.160 area or No, that. 354 00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:00.519 Was this time. I was in Leadville, Colorado. 355 00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:02.640 Oh, I wouldn't Colorado. Okay. 356 00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:06.759 I didn't realize that there was sightings in Leadville apparently, 357 00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:10.640 and was camping and woke up at about three o'clock 358 00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:14.880 in the morning to what sounded like a woman screaming 359 00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:19.960 for her life and there was only like two other 360 00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:22.759 campers in the area and they were all asleep. 361 00:20:24.400 --> 00:20:26.079 Yeah, I was pretty. 362 00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:29.200 Sure that that was. Yeah, I'm not going to check 363 00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:30.839 when they do that, I don't go check that. 364 00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:34.880 Yeah. The one of the known speeches of the animal that's 365 00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:38.799 known for uh sounded like it's a woman screaming is 366 00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:40.039 actually a mountain lion. 367 00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:42.680 Oh okay, well, yeah. 368 00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:44.960 They're very commonly known for that. I'm not saying maybe 369 00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:47.680 you've heard different. I don't know so, but I just 370 00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:51.880 wanted to let you know. I'm assuming they're probably calming 371 00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:52.440 out that way. 372 00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:54.880 Yeah, but I did. 373 00:20:54.920 --> 00:21:00.160 I sat up immediately and went bigfoot like something in 374 00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:03.000 my mind that I knew immediately, you know, that it 375 00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:07.920 was who knows. Who knows, But my I have questions 376 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:14.119 too if they are gifting. I've always heard that if 377 00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:18.599 you have something that belongs to them, like footprints or 378 00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:21.680 a gift that they've given you, that it gives you 379 00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:25.799 a connection to that to whoever, that whatever, that entity is, 380 00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:30.599 that that being that cryptid And my question would be, 381 00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:35.000 since I gave that stone away, would that give her 382 00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:38.519 that connection? Would she maybe have exiting at some point 383 00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:41.440 because they know that she's she's cool? 384 00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:43.559 You know, I don't know. 385 00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:46.519 That is a good question. I'm going to try to 386 00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:49.480 respond to that. Meanwhile, anyone listening feel free to chime 387 00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:52.319 in on the live chat and we'll offer your question 388 00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.960 out there. Or are your response I should say, I do? 389 00:21:56.200 --> 00:21:58.720 I mean, in my honest opinion, I believe like you 390 00:21:58.759 --> 00:22:01.920 were given something and then you took that gift as 391 00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:05.440 your own and then you immediately passed it honest. You know, 392 00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:08.680 like I'm trying to think what's the best way of 393 00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:14.000 saying it's showing that you were kind or you know, 394 00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:16.559 you were being kind and kind and hearing. 395 00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:19.039 Yeah, right, I think you know that. 396 00:22:20.680 --> 00:22:24.720 Huh. Yeah. Virginia cryptod and Paranormal Research said it may 397 00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:25.799 give you both a connection. 398 00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:30.119 Oh good, that's even better. 399 00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:33.799 That's right. Yeah, And my other. 400 00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:38.759 Question, like, I never saw I've never gotten to see 401 00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:44.079
