Have you ever been in a wild place where you felt overwhelmed by eeriness? I've been within sniffin' distance of bears, cougars, and big bull moose, but that's not quite what I mean. There was this one place up Lolo Canyon in western MT where my hub and I both got chills for no apparent reason. It was really strange, but we hiked around there twice, and the feeling persisted. Bad vibes! Was it something that occurred there in the past? I don't know, but it was definitely eerie...

YES. There is this place by Red Rocks climbing area in Nevada that gives me the heebie jeebies. It's not like there is anything I can SEE there that is out of place, but it just has a feeling that makes me very uncomfortable and somehow super-aware of everything around there - like I'm expecting something to happen. Isn't that strange - those places and feelings? I, too, wonder what causes the "bad vibes..."
XOXO, Libbie

We were houseboating on Dale Hollow Lake, KY. There are no houses on this lake - and it's huge too. You can go for days without seeing another houseboat depending on the time of year you go.
We were docked for the night. I don't know what time it was. We heard this sound pertty close in the woods - an animal sound. Mammal. My Mom who has grown up in the mountains had never heard it in her entire life. It was eerie but beautiful. Weird. Eerie because we had not idea what it was.
I've not been able to find out what it was. Back at the dock we learned that there are wild hogs in the area - don't think that was it. We think it was either a bobcat or a cougar.
In the morning there was a smell on the front of our houseboat like a cat had sprayed. A bit close for comfort!

I have been walking in the forest before and walked into an area where I felt much how Libbie described it. A perfectly ordinary clearing with no special significance as far as I know, but I don't go there and wouldn't really want to spend time in the area for long! Isn't that weird how that happens?!
