    MY OWN RECORDINGS:

    Baby laughter

    Honestly this episode had me yanking my hair out, cursing under my breath repeatedly, and literally crying. The curse of working on the halloween episode lives on, I ran into challenges, obstacles and a list of tech snafu's - one after another. I started around early and went on till dark, 13 hours... so when you listen please have patience if the sounding isn't completely normal and just know it's because I truly love this podcast and have fun doing it that I didn't give up! This deserves some saving my skin shoutouts...

  • Tessa discusses premonitions, from a storm making its way and changing the outcome of D Day, to a novel written almost a decade and a half before the Titanic sinks to it's watery grave, but with so many similarities many thought the author saw into the future. A murder victim has a vision a year prior to their brutal murder. And much more.

    Each year, Split Rock Lighthouse is lit on the anniversary of the wreck of the steamer Edmund Fitzgerald. The Fitzgerald was lost with all hands during a terrible storm on Lake Superior on November 10, 1975.
    The weather was awful for the lighting. It was raining. It was windy. It was cold. There were 5 foot waves crashing into the shore. I stayed long enough to shoot just a couple of photos and then headed for the hotel to enjoy a nice pool and some warm pizza with my wife and kids.
