We’ve been caught up in conversation. I’m absorbing it all. It’s really dusty in here. Everyone’s nasal passages are plugged.

We’ll be online soon. We’re all very tired,but something is going on here. I’m not ready to decide…yet.


Up and Ready…

The crew and I are now at Ashmore Estates. Larry, Ashley and Katie are on the way. The staged haunt is going on now. REALLY COOL! Get your tickets on our web link. It’s worth the trip. Breezy and mild. Talked with Dave Wire and we’re not looking at any severe weather. Check Dave out at 11pm, and we’ll also have a live shot. Tonight we bring in the believers. I still have to make a decision about the validity of the haunting. My decision will be made on air at 6pm. I haven’t made up my mind yet. Stay linked. Tell your friends.

Trying To Sleep

Sitting here with Todd Bates, Scott Arnold and Chris Essex. We’re meeting to line up the show for tonight. Something happened to me early this morning at Ashmore Estates. I have only told one person about this.
I’ll share more as we progress. Let me say this….if I live my life well, I’ll go to a white light where everything is quiet with just the whisper of the Music of the Spheres. If I goof up, I’ll go to a dark spot where everyone has leaf blowers. Now, I’m going to try to catch a nap. Join us later with the ‘believers’ and really live unscripted streaming.
