15
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:12.760
two, a conversation with Dovey.
We had a bathroom right next to our

16
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:19.400
bedroom, and there was a window
that looked out towards the pasture and you

17
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:23.959
couldn't see anything out there, and
I always had this feeling like I was

18
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:29.280
being watched that window. I always
just had this weird feeling. I can't

19
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:32.560
even tell you how often I felt
that way. And sometimes i'd closed the

20
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.560
window or closed a little, you
know, drape, but I didn't always

21
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:38.120
have one up there, but because
I like to keep it open, but

22
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.400
sometimes i'd have to close it.
And anyway, this one night, I'm

23
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:45.840
home by myself and I'm sound asleep, and I don't know if it was

24
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.200
twelve one o'clock in the morning or
what, but all of a sudden,

25
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.920
this horrible smell woke me up.
It was sewage and sulfur smell, and

26
00:01:55.959 --> 00:02:00.040
it just oh, it just I
mean, it woke me up. It

27
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:04.959
was horrible, and I could hear
something shuffling on side of my house,

28
00:02:05.719 --> 00:02:07.840
like you know, I could tell
something was out there. I have no

29
00:02:07.960 --> 00:02:12.879
idea why I didn't call the police. I have no idea I should have.

30
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:15.719
I don't know. It just never
dawned on me, and I was

31
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:17.080
thinking about calling my son in law
or something, and I said, no,

32
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:21.319
what if they get hurt? Why
I thought that, but like,

33
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:23.479
what if they get hurt? Or
And when I woke up and I heard

34
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:32.960
this, the feeling I had was
I was terrified. I was literally terrified.

35
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.400
I thought my life was Indeed,
I thought I was going to die.

36
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:39.800
I mean literally, I felt like
I was going to die. It

37
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:46.919
was the worst feeling I had ever
felt. You know, I can't equate

38
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.520
it to those experiences because I was
still kind of young and it had been

39
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:58.840
so long. But this experience I
was I was like fear just all over

40
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:04.199
throughout my body, and I kept
thinking, you know, part of me

41
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.360
wanted to look out the you know, well, first I did look kind

42
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:08.520
of go in the bathroom. You
know, I had the door open,

43
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.000
and I'm looking. I'm hearing something
shuffling, and I got a little flush

44
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:15.599
and I'm kind of trying to and
something tell me don't get close. I

45
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.919
don't know why. Something was telling
me don't get real close. So I'm

46
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:22.800
trying to look out the wind.
I could not see anything out that window.

47
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.479
Nothing out that window, and so
I'm thinking, Okay, maybe I

48
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.159
could go out into the living room
and kind of look up through the shades,

49
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:32.240
you know, and I opened my
bedroom door, went out in the

50
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:38.319
living room, and I'm thinking,
no, no, I don't want to

51
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:40.400
look out because I don't know what
I'm going to see and I don't want

52
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:44.479
to see something looking back at me. That's what went through my head.

53
00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:46.800
I don't want to look out,
and I don't know why, but that's

54
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:51.879
what my head was telling me.
And then I checked the doors make sure,

55
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:57.120
because I when I'm home by myself, I was double lock everything and

56
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.719
so yeah, and then I kind
of turned. I mean, I felt

57
00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:02.199
like I was walking in circles,
like what do I do? And then

58
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.199
part of me is like, well, maybe I could hide in the closet.

59
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:08.879
Maybe I could hide, and then
some's like nope, we can find

60
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:13.840
you, you know. And I
don't even know where that came from,

61
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:16.199
but it just felt like whatever it
was could find me there. It told

62
00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:17.959
me, no, don't don't do
it. I don't know if it was

63
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.519
that or my head, you know, I can't say, but it was

64
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:27.240
just weird, really weird. But
I'd never ever smelt that before in my

65
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:29.959
house, and it does it.
We don't have a sewage line on that

66
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:31.759
side of the house. It's in
the front front of the house or you

67
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:39.839
know, sewer line, and it
was just the weirdest thing. And I

68
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:43.319
never thought to go out and look
for tracks or anything. But the next

69
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:46.759
day my husband came home and I
mentioned it to him. I don't think

70
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:50.079
he took me seriously or something.
I'm not really sure, but he kind

71
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:55.360
of like, oh, okay,
well whatever, you know. And but

72
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:58.600
I tried to tell him, you
know, something was out there, but

73
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:01.000
and then there was a you know. And then the more we thought about

74
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:05.680
that experience in living there one time
because we had a hot tub in the

75
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:10.439
back of our house on the side
next to that pasture, and there was

76
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.399
a chain lean. Eventually, after
we moved there, the farmer put a

77
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:16.319
chain link fence, and then my
husband built a deck and we had a

78
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.720
hot tub there in the corner.
And this one night I was out lighting

79
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:27.839
these little tea lights in these little
glass containers along this little edge of our

80
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:31.120
deck because we were going to get
in the hot tub and there's no real

81
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.279
lights out there, so I wanted
some little lights. And I kept having

82
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:40.839
this really weird feeling like something's there
in the in the pasture and you can't

83
00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:44.319
see out there. It's dark,
and I just kept and I kept saying,

84
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.519
oh, you're imagining, you're imagining, you know, And I kept

85
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:49.439
lighting the candles and then you know, I got out in the tub first,

86
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:53.399
and then finally I went in.
You know, I felt really uncomfortable,

87
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.399
so I went into my heusand I
said, you're coming out or what

88
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:58.959
because I wouldn't going to stay out
there, and so he finally did.

89
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:01.199
And we weren't out there maybe fifteen
minutes and we heard like a I don't

90
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:05.399
know, a gruff, a growl
something, and I'm like, I'm out

91
00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:10.120
here, I'm gone. I was
like I am too, and we left

92
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:14.879
and we'd never had that experience before. It was just He's like, I

93
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:17.279
don't know, and we didn't know
what it was. We just said we're

94
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.040
done, you know. I blew
out the candles, I left, went

95
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:23.120
in the house, and we were
done for the night. And that was

96
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:29.920
just really weird. We both felt
very uncomfortable there in the hot tub there

97
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:34.240
next to that pasture. And later, as I'm thinking about it, we

98
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:40.360
had a sensory light up above our
garage underneath the eve and one time I

99
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:44.319
went out to go to work and
there was glass in my driveway, and

100
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:46.000
I'm thinking, how the heck did
that break? Where the well? First

101
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:48.480
I thought where'd the glass come from? It never dawned on me it was

102
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:54.800
a motion sensor light. And come
to find out, somebody had broke the

103
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:59.639
motion sensor light out above our garage. And then another time we had a

104
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:02.920
big trash can. They're pretty tall, like four feet tall or whatever,

105
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:08.279
and they got a cover. You
take it off, but it hangs.

106
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:12.399
You can't take it completely off.
It'll hang, and then you put it

107
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:15.319
back on. You put your trash
in there, and we'd have it on

108
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:17.639
side the house well. A couple
of times I found trash. The trash

109
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:21.199
had bin way over by the fence
next to the pasture, and trash is

110
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:29.000
pulled out of it, but the
lids back on, and I'm picking up

111
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:32.240
trash like, what the heck?
You know, there's nothing in it.

112
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.519
There's you know. I mean,
if it would have been a raccoon or

113
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:39.240
something, it'd and knocked it over, or a dog or anything like that.

114
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:43.720
But there been rummaged through my trash
and I never could figure out who

115
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.720
was doing it. I only did
it a couple of times, but it

116
00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:50.759
was just weird. And then before
we moved, I'm going to say a

117
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:55.480
year or two before we moved,
is when I sometimes stuff would get knocked

118
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:59.680
off our wall would be like something
hit the house or throw something at the

119
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:03.759
house. I thought it was just
odd because like my clock in my bathroom

120
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:07.759
fell and I thought, what the
heck I mean? And unless we had

121
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:13.399
an earthquake, the only way it
could have just come off is that something

122
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.680
hit the side of the house and
you know, or my light in my

123
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:24.120
bedroom would be swaying like, and
I'm thinking, did we didn't We didn't

124
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:26.680
have an earthquake. You know,
it was just weird stuff like, and

125
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:33.039
something was either throwing something. It
wasn't happening a lot, but it did

126
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:39.480
happen periodically. And then also I
had purchased one of those because we didn't

127
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.000
have a doorbell, so I purchased
one of those of you put a battery

128
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.720
in it. I put it at
the front door because you know, I

129
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.159
couldn't always hear people knocking. And
for the longest time, I'm going to

130
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.519
say, for about three years or
so, in the middle of the night,

131
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.840
I hear the doorbell and I'd like
what And so I'd get up and

132
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.399
I'd look out, you know,
I don't answer my door. I look

133
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.600
out first, and that thing's there, No one's there, And you know,

134
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.679
I mean where i'd look out my
bedroom window. But usually i'd go

135
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.240
up to the you know, outside
my bedroom and look out the front window,

136
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:18.799
and nothing's there. And that it
would That didn't happen all the time,

137
00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:22.600
but every so often that doorbell would
ring, now like twelve o'clock at

138
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:24.240
night, one o'clock in the morning, eleven o'clock at night whenever. I

139
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:28.600
mean, we usually went to bed
about nine thirty, ten o'clock, and

140
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:33.720
so usually, you know, twelve
one o'clock, that doorbell, and I'm

141
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.720
just like, what the heck I
think? I think finally I'd just let

142
00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:39.000
the battery go out. I thought, no, you know, because it

143
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.080
wake me up mill of the night. But just weird stuff. And the

144
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:48.639
our street light was broke out.
Yeah, just some some really weird things.

145
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.080
Were happy, and then we moved. And when we were moving,

146
00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:58.279
I was telling my second to the
oldest daughter about, you know, feeling

147
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.919
like someone was looking through the window. And her and her husband and my

148
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.200
grandkids had lived with us for a
while in that house, and when my

149
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:07.480
husband and I went on a vacation. I said, hey, why don't

150
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:11.480
you and your husband sleep in our
room so you're, you know, away

151
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.679
from the kids and whatever, since
we're not going to be here. And

152
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:18.120
she said, oh, okay,
you know, so they slept in our

153
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:22.000
bedroom and she said, mom,
he said I would tell and her husband

154
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.000
his name was Don. She said, I would tell Don to go close

155
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.000
that window because I'm not going in
there with that window open. She said,

156
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.720
something's looking at me. And she
said I always felt like something was

157
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:33.480
looking at me. I said,
what did you tell me? And she's

158
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:35.960
like, I didn't think about it. I thought something was wrong with me

159
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:43.320
or whatever. And she said I
felt the same thing, and so I

160
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:46.200
thought, well, if she felt
it and I felt it, then something

161
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:50.480
probably was. I don't know why
the guys didn't feel that way, but

162
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:54.720
me and my daughter felt the same
way, like something's looking at us through

163
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:58.120
that window. And I felt that
way quite often. And it was so

164
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.120
dark out there, and I was
constantly trying to get my husband to put

165
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.840
emotion since her out there, which
he never did, but he did put

166
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:09.039
one above the garage, but that
kind of got broke out, you know,

167
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.519
and then when I asked my husban
about it, he said, I

168
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:13.679
don't know why, I never he
goes, I just thought it was the

169
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.840
wind, I said, the wind
breaking out emotion since there light, he

170
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.279
goes, Well, I don't know, I don't think about it. And

171
00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.399
I just said, you know,
because after listening to a lot of podcasts

172
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:30.679
about different things and people different experiences
and watching that finding big I know a

173
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.120
lot of people have, you know, joke about finding Bigfoot, but I'll

174
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:37.720
tell you that was a big opener
for a lot of people. I know

175
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:41.399
it was for me and my husband. That really helped us open up our

176
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.440
eyes to a lot of things and
experiences that we were having in our life.

177
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:48.519
So but you know, thank goodness
for the podcasts and stuff, and

178
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:54.799
for your podcast that you know.
I really appreciate people sharing their experiences because

179
00:11:54.840 --> 00:12:01.519
if it hadn't been for that,
I would not have realife all the things

180
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:07.480
that we have. And my husband
and I we love hiking, but we

181
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.279
usually go hiking. I love waterfalls. We like to find waterfalls, but

182
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.720
we usually go where other people.
There's usually other people, I know,

183
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:20.279
especially during COVID, where there were
always a lot of people out there and

184
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:24.039
one time. We were going to
go hiking off I'm going to say a

185
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.519
logging road and it had a closed
gate and we we thought, well,

186
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.159
we're going to walk up there anyway. And we got up there probably half

187
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.039
a mile, and I told my
husband, I said, you know,

188
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.360
I think I want to just turn
around go back because there was nobody else

189
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:43.960
out there. And I started getting
a little nervous, to be honest,

190
00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:48.360
and I just said, no,
let's just turn around. Just wanted to

191
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.440

00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:48.360
approximately seven hundred more people in the
Patreon in order to reach our goal of

216
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:56.200
going full time actually able to go
to places people that have been having bigfoot

217
00:14:56.200 --> 00:15:00.360
activity, interview them face to face. Check it out for myself, all

Thank you all for listening, and
we'll see you next time. Her and

226
00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:36.000
I can get out here, we
can tell our stories. Maybe there's somebody

227
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:40.240
else out there listening it's too afraid
to tell their story. Maybe this will

228
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:44.000
give them the courage to come out. And I feel so bad about it.

229
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:47.759
Who cares what anybody's thinks. I
know what I saw, I know

230
00:16:47.840 --> 00:17:07.519
what's out there. That's all I
care about. Please let people know please

231
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:11.759
let them know. If you ever
see one of these things, you need

232
00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:17.799
to tell because if you don't,
then shame on you. You have shame

233
00:17:17.880 --> 00:18:03.480
on you.
