[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 387951"] I've seen a number of ghosts or whatever while driving. Old wrecks, roadkill, you name it. There was a dirt road back near where I grew up that on several occasions I saw a cranky old man. Plaid shirt half-tucked, scuffed work boots and jeans, bottle in a paper bag in one hand, crowbar in the other, just off side the road by his truck. Being new to that part of the area (a different town than I grew up but close by) I asked a few locals who he was. Yep, you guessed it, the mean old guy had been dead for years. Another rural highway out that way has RR tracks running parallel to it for quite a stretch, and I've seen a lot of things on that road (clear nights, not foggy ones). Wreck of an over-turned semi was one. Another was over near the RR tracks (where I found out later the old dirt road used to be), a horse and carriage unit like a traveling salesman, with pots or something hanging from the roof of the carriage. The woods out that way seem quite haunted, too. Even accounting for the heebie jeebies they can give you as it is, I was driving through there one night with two friends and saw a tree that looked a bit "different". Looked up and up... there was a head at the top, and it looked like a dinosaur to me. And yes, I was perfectly sober and not over tired any of these times. When I first found my bio-dad, I went to visit him and my half-sister. My then boyfriend (now 2nd XH) and I stayed in a travel trailer parked in front of his place. During the night I was woken up by someone's presence. It wasn't menacing or anything, but knowing this place was on land the family had lived on since their escape from the Trail of Tears (yes, verified) I rather suspected I had a "visitor" rather than a visitor. I rechecked both doors in the morning, everything was still locked up tight. Described this guy to bio-dad in the morning down to his aftershave, and bio-dad said it was his father, who had died long ago and due to a housefire years before I met him there were no photos of him. One of the few encounters I've had since I visited Westminster Abbey, which seemed to "blow my circuits" on those things, so to speak. [/QUOTE]
