One afternoon I went in the backyard to retrieve something from our little utility shed. I was walking, when suddenly this feeling came over me...it felt like someone watching me. I stopped for a moment and thought someone might be walking behind me. So I turned around to look, not really expecting to see anything. There stood an old woman....she had a red checkered dress on. She didn't say anything, just stood there looking at me....in broad daylight. I blinked and she suddenly just disappeared. Just as I turned around to head back to the shed, a large snake came squirmming out of the shed. To this day, I look at her appearance as something helpful. Because the few moments it took me to stop and notice her, could have been a very tragic event. I have a pheobia of snakes, not to mention I don't know what kind of snake it was, nor do I know whether or not it was poisonous. So she really did help me in more way than one.

One night my mother and I were sitting in the living room watching television. My mother's English bull dog Lucy Bell was laying on the floor near my mother. For no apparent reason, Lucy sat up and began to growl. The hair literally stood straight up all along her back. We just sat there and watched as she kept growling in a low tone as if she felt threatened or sensed something. Suddenly she began to bark and growl louder. She then ran to the middle of the floor and began lunging out at something. After a while she began running around as if she were following something and trying to attack it. We just sat there startled by all of this. We couldn't see anything.....but we knew by the way she was acting....she definitely did. My gut feeling told me she saw a ghost. Eventually it went away and Lucy settled down.
