Mark`s Late Parent`s Place

Recently both my parents had died, both on their property in the Santa Cruz mountains in northern California. Since the time of their passing I have had so many things happen that I just cant come up with any explanation to satisfy me, or any others that have been around for the bumpy ride. We have been taking pics of the house and surrounding property documenting my progress in the building of a house to replace the house that was destroyed in the Loma Prieta E-Quake in 1989.

We noticed that as time went by, more and more  of our pics had  strange things showing up in them increasingly until present time where now it makes no difference what camera we use,  what the weather conditions at the time are, or indoors, outdoors, day, or night. If we take 100 photos ...75 or so will have Orbs or Smoky apparitions along with constant shadows and footsteps  and screeches that put a fat layer of goose bumps  on you giving you skin like that on a football. I could  go on for days  and still only tell a small portion of it all!  When my mother was close to passing on, maybe a month or so before she passed, we had sat down  and had a pretty good B.S. session  along with some of my children and a family friend. 

We were discussing the  here after and I urged mom  to please try to make contact from beyond  by moving some items or playing with the lights, which  she politely declined giving the reason that she just couldnt do anything that may frighten anyone that she cared about, especially the children.

She then suggested to me that if she were to do any thing to show us her presence, she would send me a dove as a symbol of her love and her wish for all to be at peace after she was gone.

We had gone on with our day and the weeks ahead and never gave another thought to our talk.  we had My oldest son  who would offer his help to her and had become a little closer than the rest of the family was the one to find her the morning of her death.

Then about 3 or 4 days after she had died, my family was out in the yard doing chores when a wild mourning dove flew into the yard and landed at the feet of my son who then bent down and picked up this dove as it showed no fear.

He the took the bird inside where it became his companion until he released it two months later never to see it again. After the dove was gone, the family friend from the conversation came by and we talked about letting the dove go free when he nervously reminded me about the dove in the conversation and we all just stopped and could not help but smile and giggle for the rest of the day. There may be other explanations for the bird, but I prefer the explanation that I just gave to be the default.

As for the photos have a look and see what comes to mind.Some the photos were resized  to fit something or other but I can certainly guaruntee that none of the photos were tampered with to make these things appear in them. 

What do YOU think??

 I sent you a couple more pics, nothing too special,  then went on to your website to do some reading and came to the 10 warning signs. Pretty much have experienced all of the mentioned signs with emphasis on numbers 1-5 common, #6 not so much at the house but elsewhere, #7 is one that has caused many a problem in my home.

This was an ongoing thorn in my side that would amuse my friends and drive me to the point of verbal threats to do harm if the items were not returned and after my tantrum drove me to do something lame like break something or throw something the item would then be right where I had just looked as well as others looking in the very same spot helping me to find a tool or something that I needed to use for that day. It even got to the point thAT i REFUSED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT MY PLANS FOR THE NEXT DAY OR WEEKS TO COME WERE,  for if I did I was sure to be missing what I needed to carry out my tasks. Very frustrating to both me and those around me.

#8 I never really saw any furniture or items move, But I did see a few indoor as well as outdoor mists that happen on warm clear days and nights. #10 I just am not sure about what it is that I have seen nor can I give any reasonable explanation for it all! thanks again for taking the time to look at these and writing me back .

I found a couple more pics thought you may want to see  The first pic was on a clear and fairly warm night, the fog that you see swirled and writhed around and as it moved by it was almost like you could hear it whisper very softly.

It managed to give all of us a serious case of goose bumps and made our hair float like when you rub a balloon and put it by your head. This series of pics  were taken at a neighbor`s house next to an old grave site.The grave is that of Henry B. Norman who died  at an early age in the late 1800`s  The last picture in the series you can see aflesh tone color at the bottom of the fog as it  rapidly moved away  from us.

Dear Mark,
 
Thank you for the photos & story, I found your story both touching & moving.  I have examined your photos & based on the details of your story & what I have observed in the pictures, I believe there is truly some heavy spiritual activity on your property. Some of the orb photos are questionable to a degree, but the fogs & mists in the photos appear to be authentic.  The apparition garage photo is interesting, but I must ask what color is the vehicle that is by the apparition? After magnifying it several times, it appears that there is actually a face in that fog. Our minds are automatically trained to recognize faces from inanimate objects, but I seriously do find these photos interesting.
 
Digital cameras under 5 mega pixels are notorious for producing orbs because they are unable to properly translate images in low light conditions. The end result is orbs. Flash reflection from insects & dust particles is another common cause. I estimate that 95% of all orb photos are just mechanical errors of cameras & processing. But that`s not to say that all of the orbs in your photos are not paranormal.

I sometimes have to go with my gut feeling on some of these types of photos, but my gut is telling me that these photos are a good indication of the spiritual activity on your property.

 
Sincerely,
Blair Jett.
