Hi, since my name is obvious, let me get to the dirt! I am 43, and live in Central Oregon with my son and significant other who is disabled. Life here can be trying at times as I also work as a licensed homecare provider for elderly and disabled people.
I have been actively studying the paranormal from about the time I could watch and understand tv, and read...lol. My two daughters are also interested and I have tried to bolster their interest. This month, while in California on some personal business, I took them to visit the Wolfe Manor in Clovis. THey really enjoyed it. And I got to try my hand at actually investigating! It was an awesome night there! Although others in the group had some really awesome experiences, about all I experienced was a spike on my emf meter that coincided with the appearance of a cold spot. I also had some luck with the dousing rods wich was interesting to say the least. I just wonder how much of our own magnetic fields have to do with the movement of the rods. OR if subtle body movements can cause them to cross and move.
I've yet to find an active group in this area. But one day maybe I'll have some luck!
Looking forward to chatting with all of you but now I have to get ready for work!
