Brian and I have a tradition... now we've done it for 3 years (so I guess that makes it a tradition, right?). Every Halloween, we each pick out a pumpkin and carve a face! It's so fun. I love picking out our faces every hear and then drawing them and carving them. Check out our pumpkins this year!
On October 30th, I (Sara) decided to take a trip up to Cripple Creek and go on a ghost hunt! It was so much fun! Brian couldn't come with me, so I had to go on this adventure alone...
I had worked with a substitute teacher who is a member of a paranormal society here in Colorado Springs. He and I were talking about how much we both enjoyed the popular TV show Ghost Hunters when he mentioned that he often goes on ghost hunting trips with other members of his club. I thought it sounded very interesting... then he said that anyone could go and that there were a few ghost hunting trips scheduled throughout October in a Jailhouse Museum in Cripple Creek. So, needless to say, I signed up.
I got there around 8:00pm that night (the ghost hunt was scheduled from 8pm - 6am). They had very high-tech equipment and I was impressed at how they put so much effort into the camera angles and the "protocols" that we all followed. There were about 20 of us altogether on this trip. We split up into groups of 4-5 and wandered into different rooms/jail cells and tried to see if we could catch any disembodied voices/apparitions on any of our equipment.
We were welcome to bring our sleeping bags and crash in any cell of our choice when we got too tired to continue hunting ghosts. I chose a cell and laid out my things - later to find out that the cell I had chosen was apparently haunted. The last person to sleep in that cell claimed she heard a male voice ask, "What are you doing here?" Oddly, I wasn't intimidated. I felt fine and when it was time to go to sleep, I slept very soundly. :)
Personally, I didn't hear/see anything. It was a fun trip, though! I hope Brian can come with me on my next ghostly adventure...
We basically love having fun and laughing together... Brian is an avid mountain biker and enjoys taking videos of his rides and creating movies of them. I like to create things and consider myself very artistic. I stamp, draw, paint, scrapbook... I love making stuff! I teach different formats of group exercise classes: "Boot Camp," Yoga, and Spinning. I'm also a student learning how to become a Physical Therapist Assistant and I love how being a group exercise instructor and PTA student compliment each other!
