Latest / Spinning the Light Podcast / UFO's The Unexplained
Transcript
- 0:09Hello and welcome to two girls in a pod I'm.
- 0:12Sharon, I'm Christy. Welcome back.
- 0:16Just wanted to say, you know, we decided last week to take a
- 0:19little mental health week, just kind of regroup and think about
- 0:24things we want to talk about and just take some time for
- 0:27ourselves. So sorry about the week off, but
- 0:31we're always talking here about self help and that's part of it.
- 0:34You know, it said at the end of the last episode that we were
- 0:36going to start talking about parenting.
- 0:38But as Christine, I were talking even earlier this morning was
- 0:43that we've had some really kind of more serious stuff the first
- 0:46nine episodes. So we decided we were going to
- 0:49throw in a little something different, just a little more
- 0:52fun. Take a little detour.
- 0:54Yeah, you know, which is great because you know, it also
- 0:57teaches us in life that we can change our mind, we can do what
- 1:00we want to do. So once again, and we appreciate
- 1:03you, you know everybody who's on this journey with us and sharing
- 1:07in this experience. And once again, we talked about
- 1:09it being pretty organic and just we just go with whatever.
- 1:12So we will start the parenting, but we're going to do that more
- 1:16next week. So we wanted to, like I said,
- 1:18just take a little bit of a detour as Christy calls it.
- 1:20And so today we're actually going to talk about UFO's.
- 1:24You know, I'm sure that, you know, you'd have to be under a
- 1:27rock or something to not see a lot of the new stuff coming out
- 1:30on UFO's. You know, the government
- 1:32released their stuff and. Yeah, there's been a lot more
- 1:36talk about it. Seems like a lot of people are
- 1:39seeing things they can't explain.
- 1:42Yeah, and I know they wanted to change it to from UFO to some
- 1:47other acronym, but at the end of the day, it still means it's
- 1:50not. We don't know what it is.
- 1:52Call it what you like exactly. You know, at the beginning of
- 1:55this, I told you, I'm from a place called the San Luis Valley
- 1:58in Colorado, and there's been a few UFO sightings down there.
- 2:02That's also where the kettle mutilations were and stuff like
- 2:05that. And a lot of people say that
- 2:07that somehow is tied into UF O's.
- 2:09I don't know, but it's just kind of fascinating to kind of
- 2:13explore that for you, Christy, too.
- 2:15You kind of ended up back in the San Luis Valley, you know?
- 2:19But prior to being with me, you had already been traveling back
- 2:22there. Yeah, I decided I wanted to go
- 2:24to college down there. So I had made some trips down
- 2:27there and I had some things that I could that saw in the sky that
- 2:32I couldn't explain. So So what was that like for
- 2:36you? Was that?
- 2:37Well, it was scary because I was driving by myself in an area I
- 2:42wasn't really. Familiar with, you know?
- 2:44Out in the country and. It was a really dark night and I
- 2:49just started seeing these lights in the sky, red ones and some
- 2:53green ones, and they would, it was almost like they were
- 2:57dancing or playing, like they would just dart from one side of
- 3:02the sky to the other and come together and then separate and
- 3:06it just was like watching a video game in the sky.
- 3:09It was really interesting. I have never seen anything quite
- 3:14like that. Sins before or sins Yeah.
- 3:18And growing up we would see the lights in the sky you know and
- 3:21we would talk about it. My parents would see them.
- 3:24They told us the story once of when one of the Transformers
- 3:27blew. So they didn't have any power in
- 3:29the in the house so and it was getting night so they decided to
- 3:33go sit out in the pickup and just kind of look at the night
- 3:36sky and they said the same thing.
- 3:38They just saw these about 7 lights come and they watched him
- 3:42for a long time just kind of like you said, look like they
- 3:45were almost playing, you know, with each other and what that
- 3:48experience site was like for them.
- 3:50So and of course me growing up in the valley, we would see
- 3:53things like that in the sky and it was like whoa, what is that?
- 3:56And it was, it was like sometimes it almost felt like
- 3:58they're putting on an aerial show for you or something.
- 4:01So it had this really. It has a kind of, Keith said.
- 4:05It's kind of neat and can also be scary at the same time.
- 4:08Yeah, I was really excited to be experiencing something like that
- 4:12because I I never had and but it was scary at the same time, like
- 4:16I said, I was by myself seeing this.
- 4:18And I I mean, I guess there's a comfort level realizing that
- 4:23it's so far up at the sky. I don't know.
- 4:25I think if it had come down I might not have been so brave.
- 4:29But yeah, it creates sort of a. Excited but yet kind of scared
- 4:34feeling. Yeah.
- 4:35And there's a road very close to where I I grew up and a lot of
- 4:40people would talk about some family members and believe it or
- 4:43not, Fast forward to me being a clinician, a therapist down
- 4:47there. I would have clients who would
- 4:49tell me about that road and about the they called it a ball,
- 4:53either red or orange ball that would just follow them and but
- 4:58they didn't know what it was. So just very weird and that's
- 5:02multiple multiple people talking about this ball that would fall.
- 5:06And my sister, we lived not far from my parents and my sister
- 5:12was going to come over and see us because her house isn't too
- 5:15far either and we see her coming in our driveway.
- 5:18And I kid you not. It almost look like if she'd
- 5:20come in any faster, she would be coming in on two wheels with
- 5:23it's a dirt Rd., just so you know, so rocks are flying and
- 5:27she parks and jumps out and runs in the house and and she had two
- 5:31little kids with her, two of our nieces or nephews and they just
- 5:36come flying in and they're all freaking out.
- 5:38And she was telling us about this light following them and
- 5:41and you know, the kids tell her go faster, go faster and you
- 5:44know she's on a dirt Rd. You can only go so fast on a
- 5:47dirt Rd. you know, But just even seeing her and and then when
- 5:51they were talking about it, you could see that adrenaline.
- 5:54You could see that you can almost hear the the fear too.
- 5:58You know what I mean? Because it I agree with you can
- 6:00be exciting and scary at the same time.
- 6:04Then, you know, we lived in a house, you know, out in the
- 6:08country. We're Christy and I are talking
- 6:11one night and we're sitting in in in the bedroom.
- 6:13So my back is to the window and she's facing me and I don't
- 6:18know, it's probably what, 11-30, something like that, just up
- 6:22having a good old conversation. And I look at Christy and her
- 6:26body language completely changes, completely, completely
- 6:30changes. And you kind of tell them what
- 6:33you were experiencing at that moment.
- 6:35I looked up. At the top corner of the window
- 6:39and there were these 5 blue lights that were headed toward
- 6:45the house. They were really big and I had
- 6:50never seen anything like that. And I just stopped my speech.
- 6:54Whatever we were talking about, I just told her what is that?
- 6:59But even before she said that, the look on her face, I asked
- 7:02her, I said is there something behind me?
- 7:05And that's when she said what is that?
- 7:07And so we both turn around and we're looking and there were
- 7:10five of them. Three came forward and two drop
- 7:14back the three that came forward, one in particular, came
- 7:19closer than the other two, and there was a tree right outside
- 7:23that window. It's not a really big tree, but
- 7:27this object, whatever it was, came down right directly over
- 7:32the tree next to the house. And it was just massive, and the
- 7:37entire surface of all of these objects lit up an almost blue
- 7:43white light. It was a weird white.
- 7:47Very pale blue light. The entire surface, not just
- 7:51lights on it, but the entire surface.
- 7:53And it was just hovering there over the tree and there was
- 7:57absolutely no noise. Yeah, it's kind of like we were
- 8:00you know we're they're being as quiet as we can to see you know
- 8:03do we hear anything and nothing it's silent and you would think
- 8:09something that big would have to make noise and when I'm talking
- 8:14big, I'm talking that it was much, much bigger than our the
- 8:19house that we were in. It took up a lot of space and as
- 8:23it moved forward and you know the other, the two in the back
- 8:27they took, I mean and they were just, that was so weird.
- 8:29They were just gone. They could have been hanging
- 8:32back somewhere, but I was so focused on the three that I
- 8:35couldn't tell you what happened to those other two.
- 8:37I can. They took off because I thought,
- 8:39Oh my God, there's going to be 5 of them.
- 8:41So the. Three that came forward that I,
- 8:44my focus went all to the one that was directly above the
- 8:47house and it was so close and both of us got really scared, so
- 8:52we went to the other room. Immediately, because somehow we
- 8:56thought that was going to be safer.
- 8:58Well, it wasn't directly outside of that window.
- 9:01So we went in there and didn't have the lights on, and Sharon
- 9:05started saying about how dark it was.
- 9:08Well, what confused me is that the moon, there was a window, so
- 9:12there would be the moon. But then all sudden it was so
- 9:15dark and I almost went into this place of panic and I was there.
- 9:19Oh my God, it's too dark in here.
- 9:21And Christie's response to me was?
- 9:23Don't say that. For some reason I did not want
- 9:27her to to say about it being really dark and I can't even
- 9:31tell you why. But I just, I just kept saying,
- 9:35don't say that. And I don't even know why I had
- 9:38such a panic about it. And I was like, Oh my God, it's
- 9:41too dark in here. It's too dark in here.
- 9:42And you close your eyes. I know it.
- 9:44You don't understand. The darkness was.
- 9:46And I guess it was freaking me out because I didn't know where
- 9:48the light went, if that makes sense.
- 9:51Well, especially since this object was on that same side of
- 9:54the house and even though there was a window in that room, we
- 9:57still we could not see the light from that.
- 10:00And because that was so big and right there it seems like you
- 10:03would have, but for some reason it was super dark in that room.
- 10:07So she kept repeating that, and then all of a sudden the room
- 10:12filled with that blue white light that the was the same
- 10:17color as the object. And it just filled the.
- 10:20Room and both of us. Bolted, so we hid out in the.
- 10:27Bathroom. For half the night, I don't know
- 10:31why we thought that that was going to help, but yeah, we
- 10:33couldn't see it in there. So yeah, we eventually came out
- 10:37and it was dark. It was gone but and even though
- 10:41it was such a scary, exciting, but scary experience.
- 10:46There's a part of me sometimes that wishes I could go back to
- 10:49that moment, expanded out, not be so afraid.
- 10:54I wish I had taken a picture or done something.
- 10:57And we often talk about that two people, why didn't you take a
- 10:59picture? And I don't think until you have
- 11:01that experience, I don't think you realize how fast it happens
- 11:07and that your adrenaline goes. And you also, and this is the
- 11:12thing, when Christy gets afraid, she freezes.
- 11:16Yeah, So when I first saw the objects, I froze first, then I
- 11:19reacted. Horror or terror?
- 11:20So that was her. She was seeing me in that frozen
- 11:23moment with that look. But yeah, I freeze 1st and then
- 11:29move into action. So for us, when we talk about
- 11:33that, you know, it's that that was such a close experience, the
- 11:37closest I've ever had in my life that just close.
- 11:42And you want to be able to explain it, but you can't
- 11:46because, I mean, I don't know anything that we have here on
- 11:49Earth that has that magnet, that it was big and the coloring of
- 11:56it. And I mean we've had some other
- 12:05experiences where we've seen unusual lights in the sky or
- 12:08that, but I guess because that was so close and it felt like
- 12:12there was a response. And just that silence is to me,
- 11:58that really weird piece of it, that that silence.
- 12:14That when you were kept saying about the dark and then it
- 12:17filling the room with the light, I that was very intimidating.
- 12:24I learned my lesson. I will just close my eyes
- 12:27because because once again it was almost like it was a
- 12:30response to my anxiety over the darkness or something.
- 12:33So it just really was it was such a surreal experience.
- 12:38But at the same time, I'm like Christy, I I think to myself, if
- 12:42I could just go back and and be calm, how would that change that
- 12:46experience? Because how could we see more
- 12:49detail of stuff? Could we have stayed in that
- 12:52room longer and watched it to see what it would have done?
- 12:55Or where it went, how it disappeared.
- 12:57Or, you know, Yeah. So just those kind of things.
- 13:00And so for us, do we know what it was?
- 13:04No. Was it an unidentified flying
- 13:07object? For us it was so for very, very
- 13:11real in that aspect and and we can't explain it away because we
- 13:15don't know what it was, but we know it didn't didn't look like
- 13:18anything we've ever seen on Earth.
- 13:20And so I'm really glad I had that experience with you.
- 13:24Yeah, I am too, because like I said, there'll be times where I
- 13:28wish I could go back to that moment or I could have that
- 13:31experience again because I want to be able to not.
- 13:36Not just be terrified and and react in fear.
- 13:40I don't know that I would be able to do that, but I would
- 13:43like to think that I would handle it different this time.
- 13:46But the interesting thing too is that.
- 13:49So in the San Luis Valley there is a spot there called the UFO
- 13:54Watchtower. It's an interesting little place
- 13:57to visit. If you haven't been there, you
- 13:59should really check it out. It's just on the side of the
- 14:02road, there's a Dome shaped building and the lady that owns
- 14:06it has a little store inside and she has collected.
- 14:10A lot of lot of. Stories from people who have
- 14:14traveled through, stopped in and shared their experiences with
- 14:18her and some of them have brought pictures and so she has
- 14:23a whole picture album that she has collected pictures from
- 14:27different people that have come through and one of the pictures
- 14:30there. And we were really surprised
- 14:32because it looked exactly like the object that we saw that
- 14:36night, the entire surface. Was lit up blue.
- 14:40It was the same shape and I didn't say about that before,
- 14:43but it's sort of a an Oval shape and that's what this was.
- 14:47And it was a really good clear picture.
- 14:49I mean, it looked like it was pretty close.
- 14:51It made me wonder if they had took it the night that we saw
- 14:54that. But that was really interesting
- 14:57to see and like I said that that's a really interesting
- 15:00spot. We've taken a few friends there
- 15:02and if nothing else, it is a great place to view the stars.
- 15:07Absolutely beautiful because there's not pollution.
- 15:10It's out in the open and would recommend, if nothing else, if
- 15:14you're somebody who loves stargazing, it has a platform
- 15:18you can go up to and you can just UFO watch or stargaze, but
- 15:21it is absolutely beautiful. And so for us, you know, we had
- 15:25that experience and it was really interesting and
- 15:28fascinating and once again, something that I'm really glad
- 15:32that we could share together because it's one of those things
- 15:34that, you know, when you go to talk to somebody and if it's
- 15:36just you alone, I don't know if how people look at you or
- 15:39whatever. Like I said, we don't know what
- 15:41it was. We just know the experience we
- 15:43had. You know, we tell people, you
- 15:45take whatever you take from it. Then the last experience we had
- 15:49was actually this year we were in Lake Havasu with a friend
- 15:54with Kathy and we're sitting out in the hot tub.
- 15:57You know, it's it's a beautiful night, clear, beautiful night
- 16:01and we're just out there and we're just enjoying this time.
- 16:05And so I'm sitting on one side and I'm facing Christy, so I'm
- 16:10looking towards it would be the West, I believe and so Kathy is,
- 16:15I guess would be more towards the South on it.
- 16:18So we're just talking away and just having conversation out
- 16:21there. And like I said, it was a
- 16:22beautiful, clear night and all of a sudden I look up and I go,
- 16:26Oh my God, do you guys see that too?
- 16:28Because, you know, you always think at first maybe you're
- 16:30seeing, I don't know because it just appeared what this was, was
- 16:33this big thing to no sound. Yeah, this one had a more
- 16:39triangular shape, more slim though, sort of like.
- 16:43I believe Kathy described it as like a slice of pizza, which is
- 16:47really good way of describing the shape it had.
- 16:50A total of seven lights. The 7th light made the point and
- 16:54then three coming down each side.
- 16:56But what was interesting is even though there wasn't a cloud in
- 16:59the sky along with this object, a mist was traveled with it.
- 17:05It traveled with it. It was really unusual.
- 17:10And it just appeared and shot across the sky really fast and
- 17:16disappeared and literally just disappeared like it never
- 17:19existed. And so as I'm sitting there, I'm
- 17:22blown away by this internally in my head, I go, Oh my God, that
- 17:26would be so cool if we could see that again because Kathy's not
- 17:28seeing that. And I go, Oh my God, there's
- 17:30another one. And it once again, it's like
- 17:33somebody opens a door in the sky and this giant thing is there.
- 17:36And once again, here comes this mist with it.
- 17:39It looked. Exactly the same.
- 17:40And traveling in the same direction and then just
- 17:44disappears. And once again, no sound.
- 17:49And it was pretty low. It was pretty low, but that
- 17:54thing of no sound and the speed at which it travels.
- 17:58And once again I am literally looking at the sky and it's like
- 18:02I said, this door opens and then here's this massive thing flying
- 18:06out. But the weird thing is, once
- 18:08again, the sky was so clear and beautiful and that mist was only
- 18:12with that. And once that whatever that was
- 18:15was gone, this guy was clear again.
- 18:18It stayed clear. You're just, you literally could
- 18:21see the mist traveling with the object.
- 18:24Yeah. And I think it's kind of
- 18:26interesting like we said that in the last few months, you know
- 18:29you're seeing more and more and more information released around
- 18:34Ufo's, you know from the government and and now you're
- 18:36seeing it on our news feeds, You know, whereas I think before you
- 18:39would have to really go search for that kind of stuff because
- 18:42it just wasn't talked about or something.
- 18:45I think a lot of people are afraid of, you know how other
- 18:49people. View them if they say, you know,
- 18:51I've had this experience, you know A.
- 18:53Lot of people look at. You like.
- 18:55What have you been doing? It is Colorado, after all.
- 19:01So, but it's interesting now that more people are speaking up
- 19:06about it and I think it's because like you say in our news
- 19:09and that they are. Talking about this more that
- 19:12they're not able to explain everything that we see.
- 19:16And I think it also gives credibility to the fact that
- 19:22gives credibility to those people I think who historically
- 19:27have talked about this and then been told, oh, you know, you're
- 19:31kind of flaky or those kind of things.
- 19:33I think that those people can now feel a little bit of
- 19:36validation for it. I know why I don't think I
- 19:39needed validation because I know what we saw.
- 19:41We saw. I mean, you know, it was two of
- 19:43us on that one. And then the other time it was
- 19:46Kathy and so it was three of us. So it's not like it was us
- 19:51making this random stuff and you know, we never did look to see
- 19:55if there was other stuff happening at that time, but
- 19:58whether other people saw her to didn't see it.
- 20:00We all we can talk about is that experience that we had when I
- 20:03thought I'm grateful for those experiences.
- 20:06Aren't you? I am.
- 20:07Because, you know, even though I don't know what they mean, it
- 20:10was just, it's exciting, unusual, and there's that
- 20:15curiosity and you wish that you could explain it, but there's
- 20:19also something about the mystery of it.
- 20:23Another time we were traveling actually once again to the San
- 20:25Luis Valley and we're on the highway.
- 20:28And it's night again and we're following this car and the car
- 20:33kept breaking. And so we're breaking with it.
- 20:36And then I and you know, I, they're like, oh, maybe it's the
- 20:38elk, because we have a lot of elk running through there and
- 20:40deer. So here Christy and I are, we're
- 20:43looking and looking, trying to see these elk or deer.
- 20:46I was driving so I thought, well, I'm just going to go
- 20:50around him. And Sharon said, wait, because
- 20:52maybe it is an animal on the road or something like that.
- 20:55Maybe he's seen something and he would break.
- 20:57He got to where that he would break almost to a stop.
- 21:01So finally. We look up, yeah, we look up and
- 21:04to the right there is this light in the sky and it had come down.
- 21:09You could see it really, really good.
- 21:11But by the time we saw it, it was taking off again and I think
- 21:15that's what he was attending to. Yeah.
- 21:18And I mean when it took off, I mean it was like just.
- 21:23Who And it was gone and but you could see it just.
- 21:25I mean, that was, I've never seen anything move that fast.
- 21:29Yeah, And again, no sound, but I don't know how long it had been
- 21:33there because we were so busy, focused on the car and what he
- 21:36was doing. And looking for the animals on
- 21:38the ground, we never thought to look up.
- 21:39Yeah. And it must have been that that
- 21:42he was looking at, because as soon as it took off, then he
- 21:44took off. One of the things we learned
- 21:46from that experience is sometimes when you're doing that
- 21:49and people are ahead of you, sometimes you have to look up
- 21:51too. But that was another kind of
- 21:54interesting experience that we had, you know, with those things
- 21:58that we don't see and a lot of them are, I have found her
- 22:01around the San Luis Valley, which and you know, I had
- 22:06watched a program that talked about the San Luis Valley and
- 22:09sightings and things there. So it's really interesting they
- 22:13say that there's a good, fair amount of reports there of
- 22:17sightings. The cool thing is is I tell
- 22:20people if you are into that you can actually putting don't you
- 22:24just love our Internet today you can just Google everything and
- 22:27you know you can Google UFO Samuels Valley and bring up some
- 22:31stuff and UFO Watchtower and like Christy said she has some
- 22:35really interesting and fascinating things in there that
- 22:39you can kind of look and people sharing their memories and stuff
- 22:42and we kind of shared our story with her as well and.
- 22:46She writes down and documents everything.
- 22:48So that was kind of really neat experience because as we're
- 22:51talking to her, she was there like, Oh yeah, you know, I hear
- 22:53these things. So there's almost a little
- 22:56validation in that as well. And I don't know if people
- 22:59thought when she started this, that wow, what a crazy lady.
- 23:02I think she actually even wrote a book, The Crazy Lady Down the
- 23:05Road, something like that. So if you go, it's really
- 23:08interesting because people leave things there.
- 23:10So it's decorated with people just leave license plate, you
- 23:14name it. It's a montage of different
- 23:16things that people leave there. And so there's people from all,
- 23:20I imagine all over the world who have gone there and experience
- 23:24this. And like we said, if it's
- 23:26something you're interested in and you can take a little day
- 23:30trip or whatever, the night sky there is just absolutely
- 23:34phenomenal. And many people have heard of
- 23:36the National Sand Dunes Park. All of these locations that
- 23:40we're talking about are not far from that spot.
- 23:43Yeah. So you could do a little sand
- 23:44dune, you know, go to sand dunes, do a little bit of that,
- 23:46and then finish off in the evening at the UFO Watchtower,
- 23:49just in the San Louis Valley in general.
- 23:51There was a book written The Mysterious Valley that addresses
- 23:55some of the. Ufo's and the UFO sightings and
- 23:58all of that that took place. That book is by Chris O'Brien
- 24:01and he has a few books out. That first book though, The
- 24:04Mysterious Valley, is a really interesting read.
- 24:07Yeah, because once again tying it, you know what is our Ufo's
- 24:11tied into cattle mutilations because they would say that they
- 24:14would have the cattle mutilations that there would be.
- 24:17UFO sightings on those same nights.
- 24:19And it's my understanding that the first documented case of the
- 24:22mutilation was actually of a horse and that it was in San
- 24:27Luis Valley. Yeah, snippy the horse.
- 24:29So that's an interesting case to look into too.
- 24:33Yeah, just a whole bunch of history, you know, that I think
- 24:36is always really fascinating. We kind of do that.
- 24:39We kind of go to different places, look at the history and,
- 24:41you know, because I think we've had these experiences.
- 24:44We're more apt to look at the sky now.
- 24:46You wouldn't you agree? Yes, I think so too.
- 24:49And not that all of these sightings happen in the San Luis
- 24:52Valley. We've just had multiple happen
- 24:54there. We did have a a sighting in
- 24:58Palisade, Co We were out for a walk one evening and that
- 25:03Orangey red kind of light that people had described the ball
- 25:08that you mentioned earlier, that we saw something like that in
- 25:12the night sky there and it was just hanging out and then there
- 25:16were there was a helicopter. Like a black helicopter that
- 25:21came flying toward it, and as soon as it came that direction,
- 25:26it was like it turned out like a light.
- 25:28I mean, just like somebody turned it off.
- 25:30Yeah, it was gone. It didn't take off or anything.
- 25:32It just was poofing and the light was out.
- 25:36Yeah, that one had a different shape too.
- 25:37I always call it the marshmallow.
- 25:39Yeah, kind of squashed round, but squashed down.
- 25:42Yeah. So it was a, it was a little bit
- 25:44different, which I thought was really fascinating, But that was
- 25:48another one. You know, we weren't alone on
- 25:49that one, so some others got to see that too.
- 25:51But it was so interesting to me that we heard, we didn't, we
- 25:55never heard it. There was no sound from it.
- 25:58But then we heard when the helicopter, And then we watched
- 26:01the helicopter as it comes across the sky towards it.
- 26:05So I'm thinking, well, it has to see what we're seeing.
- 26:07And then like Christy said, it was like somebody just goes
- 26:10switch and it's gone and then the helicopter just kind of
- 26:13turns around and goes back the way it came.
- 26:15So it was just really, it was really a bizarre thing.
- 26:18And you know, I think that's what's interesting is I don't
- 26:21think that people sit there and it's not everybody sees the same
- 26:25thing, it or the same shapes there.
- 26:27It seems to be like there's these multiple shapes of things.
- 26:30And yeah, my mom, just recently, she had taken a picture of
- 26:34something that she saw in the night sky, and she's in Alabama.
- 26:38And it was a triangular shape, whatever that.
- 26:41Was so yeah. You had the experience when you
- 26:45were alone once again in the valley and you were running to
- 26:47my parents house for something at night by herself.
- 26:50Yeah, that was really strange because that was not in the sky.
- 26:54Whatever I was seeing. You have to understand in the
- 26:57San Jose Valley, you can see for a long ways that valley floor is
- 27:01flat. And so you're looking out across
- 27:04these fields and this is out in the country.
- 27:08There's no big lights like that. But as I was driving to their
- 27:12house, there was something out in one of the fields that I can
- 27:17only describe as it looked just like a Ferris wheel.
- 27:22So imagine something that size standing alone in a dark field.
- 27:27I mean I could see this really good.
- 27:29It was red at the middle and had like white lights at the.
- 27:33Edge and it just looked like a Ferris wheel standing out there
- 27:37and that I could not figure out what that was.
- 27:40I went to the house, got the items that I was there to
- 27:43collect, and then when I left, as I was coming out of the
- 27:45house, it was gone. I kept looking for it again and
- 27:50it wasn't there. And you said the size of it was
- 27:52really big because you could see it really clearly.
- 27:55Yeah. I mean, I don't think that it
- 27:57was super far from me. Like I said, it looked the size
- 28:01of a Ferris wheel. I mean, I would have thought
- 28:02there was a carnival out there, but there weren't any other
- 28:05lights. And there was no carnival at
- 28:08that time in the middle of the Farmers field, so that was
- 28:12really strange. Yeah.
- 28:14So I mean, I think that there are these experiences and I
- 28:17think that what I find fascinating, like I said, you
- 28:20know, as a therapist, when I have clients who come to me and
- 28:24they feel like I'm that safe person that they can talk to
- 28:27about these experiences of seeing those things in the sky
- 28:30and and I love it, don't think I'm crazy.
- 28:32It's where they start. I don't want you to think I'm
- 28:35crazy. And you know, and they're like,
- 28:36well, tell me what you experienced and they'll talk
- 28:39about seeing those things. Questioning, you know, is did I
- 28:43really see what I saw? And I was telling, you know,
- 28:46those are our experiences and we don't always have to have
- 28:49answers for those things. We just have to know that we
- 28:52have that experience. And what do you do with that
- 28:55experience? For us, I think it just made us
- 28:57a little more curious, don't you?
- 28:59Well, absolutely. I feel like it's a big universe
- 29:04and I think there are endless possibilities.
- 29:07And so why not? We don't know what we're seeing
- 29:10and my mind is open. Well, I'm not that same mindset.
- 29:15You know, we talked about that. You know, in this vast,
- 29:17expansive universe that we have that we would think that we are
- 29:23the only. Life form out there.
- 29:27I just can't imagine that because we're we know so little
- 29:31about space in that aspect. And what does it mean, you know,
- 29:34I mean, I think that it's interesting to me that they're
- 29:37doing more and more exploration on that about what could that
- 29:40possibly be, you know, is it, you know, I mean there's just so
- 29:45many theories out there and and they're all theories and I get
- 29:48that. But at the same time, I think
- 29:50it's nice that there's actually. People looking into this and
- 29:54trying to figure out, you know, what is it that we're
- 29:56experiencing? And also in, like you said, in
- 29:58this vast universe, how can we be the only life form?
- 30:02I mean, I think that to me, sometimes it almost feels
- 30:05arrogant that, oh, look at me, you know, we're humans and we
- 30:10kind of owned the monopoly on a life form, like, or an
- 30:14intelligent life form, you know, in this whole entire universe.
- 30:17I just find that to be a fascinating thing.
- 30:22This is what's really interesting too, about the
- 30:23Summons Valley is that there is a legend or a story of the
- 30:27Native American people there. And what they would do is every
- 30:30seven years they would take a pilgrimage.
- 30:32They would do this walk, this pilgrimage to this sacred place
- 30:36with water. And the story was that through
- 30:39all these years, the government or will call the government,
- 30:42somebody was trying to follow them and figure out what they
- 30:44were doing and all that. But every seven years they would
- 30:46make this pilgrimage and they would say that they would go
- 30:48talk to the Ant people. Yeah, it sounds like it was
- 30:51described like it was in the mountains somewhere and that it
- 30:54was a lake that they would go to.
- 30:56Yeah. And so, like I said, every seven
- 30:59years they would make this pilgrimage there and.
- 31:02They would go and speak to the Ant people, and the Ant people
- 31:05would give them information. You know, they'd exchanged
- 31:08knowledge, whatever it was, and then they would leave.
- 31:12And the next seven years, well, at one point, apparently they
- 31:15were followed. And so the Ant, it was kind of
- 31:18sad for the Native Americans down there, because then the Ant
- 31:21people wouldn't return after that.
- 31:23These are stories that have been around in the Valley for a very,
- 31:26very long time. And even at the museum down
- 31:31there in in Delmart, Colorado, they have some glyphs that
- 31:36they've taken pictures of. And it looks like you know that
- 31:39they had drawn pictures on the rocks of what they described
- 31:43these Ant people to be like. Yeah.
- 31:46So I mean, there's just so much. History too.
- 31:49So what? This isn't like a new phenomenon
- 31:51And you know, one of the things we're curious about is for our
- 31:54listeners, you know, and we'll post this to our Facebook, to
- 31:57girls in the pod Facebook as well.
- 31:59If we would love to hear your stories of things that you've
- 32:03experienced along the UFO stuff, you know, what were those
- 32:06experiences like for you? What was the location?
- 32:10And you know, even if you don't have a story, you know, maybe
- 32:13What is your take on this? Do you believe that we have?
- 32:17UFO's or is there that possibility, You know, I mean
- 32:21we're really excited to hear your guys' stories and what that
- 32:25experience was like for you. So and like I said, we just
- 32:28wanted to do more of a an episode that was a little more
- 32:32just lighthearted, not so much about that mental health piece
- 32:37or well and though this kind of takes you a lot of mental places
- 32:41when when it's happening to you, you're kind of you're kind of
- 32:44moving all over the place because it's kind of.
- 32:47A freaky thing, but but not to be so serious.
- 32:50Yeah, to talk about those experiences, I think it would be
- 32:53really interesting to get some feedback.
- 32:55And I mean, a lot of our experiences did happen in the
- 32:58San Luis Valley, but where did your experiences happen?
- 33:02That would be interesting to know.
- 33:04And yeah, and I think that also to feel like, and I know for me,
- 33:08sometimes when I even have other people talking about their
- 33:11experiences, it's just really nice because then it's like.
- 33:15OK. You know, I think there's more
- 33:18it, it's expanding more and I think more and more people are
- 33:20talking about it. I was really surprised at how
- 33:22many of our pilots are coming forward and and now talking
- 33:26about the things that they've experienced and you know how
- 33:29it's been for them to see these things in the sky and to now
- 33:34feel like they can talk about it, Yeah.
- 33:38And of course a lot of people know the Fire in the Sky movie
- 33:42and stuff like that and. I just saw him on an interview
- 33:47not that long ago talking about that experience.
- 33:50You know Travis Walton experience.
- 33:53And I always tell Christy I'm okay with seeing him.
- 33:55I don't think I would be. I'm not sure I feel okay with
- 33:59being taken up. And yeah, I'm not about that.
- 34:03I don't. I don't think I want to engage
- 34:06on that level. And for some, I don't know,
- 34:08maybe some of you guys out there having you know, feel like you
- 34:11have engaged in on that level and that would be really
- 34:13fascinating to hear. You know, and I don't know about
- 34:17the you listeners, if if you think about it, does it create a
- 34:21feeling in you? For me, the feeling of seeing
- 34:24them is one of excitement, you know, And they're like, oh, this
- 34:27is kind of cool now when I think of the thought of actually.
- 34:33Being abducted, how they talk about being, then that does not
- 34:37create an excitement in me at all.
- 34:40That's a whole different feeling.
- 34:42What would you call that? I would call that scared.
- 34:46And I think once again, that's what it is.
- 34:48It's that thing of knowing your boundaries.
- 34:52Some things we're OK with, some things we're not OK with.
- 34:55And you know, hopefully, you know, after you listen to this
- 34:57episode, you know, And if you haven't had that experience,
- 35:00hopefully it kind of. Gives you that thing where you
- 35:03say, you know what, maybe I'm going to start looking up into
- 35:06the night sky and see what I see.
- 35:08And but I always think that the night sky always offers us some
- 35:12really great stuff. Real quickly.
- 35:14My mom would get up in the middle of the night when she
- 35:17would go to the bathroom and she had a ritual.
- 35:20She'd get up and she'd look out her window and she would be
- 35:24always looking towards the West because her the bedroom window
- 35:27faced the West and she would go. One 2:00 in the morning,
- 35:31whatever time it was, and she'd always look out.
- 35:34And she tells us one day that she looks out the window and
- 35:38there's like she said it. It looked like a star at first,
- 35:41but it was too long, It was elongated.
- 35:44And she said so she's watching it and she's trying to figure
- 35:47out, well, what on earth is that?
- 35:50She said. Then it looked like it opened
- 35:53and she said she saw something flight.
- 35:56One time she saw something flight out of it.
- 35:59And then because she did this every night, she every night, it
- 36:02was her ritual to look out the window and look to the West.
- 36:05And she said, you know, she didn't see it every single
- 36:08night. And but she said and then the
- 36:11the next time she saw it, same thing open.
- 36:13And so one time it was something flying into it and one time it's
- 36:17something flying out. And then she says it kind of
- 36:19goes back, she says, but it's really weird because it looks
- 36:22like it just looks like a star. But she said she knew it wasn't
- 36:26because. She looked at the sky, she knew
- 36:28the sky. She, you know, my mother lived
- 36:31there for all many, many years. So she knew what the night sky
- 36:35look like at all the different seasons and stuff.
- 36:37So that was really an interesting thing and you know
- 36:40being able to see that and inexperience that.
- 36:43And she would just say it was weird she didn't know what it
- 36:46was. But she knew.
- 36:48You know enough that you know it's not of it's not normal for
- 36:52a night sky. You know, when she would talk
- 36:54about that looking like a sky, we would often be in our
- 36:56backyard in Delmore and we'd once again the sky watching is
- 37:01something that we really love to do.
- 37:03But we would see that sometimes like a a light in the sky that
- 37:07was kind of would get bright. Yeah, it would be be there and
- 37:11then all of a sudden you might see movement and then it may
- 37:15travel to a completely different place in the sky and then become
- 37:18stationary again and just look like a a star.
- 37:20Again, yeah. And you would kind of be there
- 37:23like. Whoa, wait a minute.
- 37:24Did I just see that? Because it would be so weird.
- 37:27But it would travel really fast, like from point.
- 37:30It could go like from way in the West to South or whatever
- 37:34direction it would go, and then it would just park.
- 37:37Yeah. And I think that Chris O'Brien
- 37:40talks about that in his book about people reporting that, you
- 37:44know, that they would see that. Yeah, that's exactly what they
- 37:47would describe sometimes. And so that was kind of a really
- 37:50neat and interesting and fascinating thing that we would
- 37:53see, you know, as far as that night sky stuff.
- 37:56But that to me was so far because and that you could just
- 38:00see it, that it was just really far, far, far away.
- 38:03So that was a little bit less intimidating, or I don't know
- 38:06what you would call it. Yeah.
- 38:08I'm hoping that anytime I have an experience like that that
- 38:12they're going to be able to hear me telepathically and know my
- 38:16limits. Oh, I hadn't thought about that,
- 38:21but that's it. That's a good thing.
- 38:24Keep your distance. I'm good.
- 38:26Yeah, we're just, we'll do a wave by as you go by, but not
- 38:29necessarily we want to experience that and I agree.
- 38:33I think that's really something and I'm, I'm glad that we're on
- 38:36the same page. You know, we're both chicken
- 38:38when it comes to that and we don't see here pretend to be
- 38:42brave or anything like that because trust me, we're not.
- 38:45But once again, we just. Wanted to have this kind of
- 38:49lighter conversation this week and you know next week we'll get
- 38:54more into the start of parenting and what does that look like and
- 38:57how do we do that effectively. And even if you're if you are an
- 39:03effective parent, there's always room to grow and that's what I
- 39:06say, you know, learning new stuff and and also remembering
- 39:09that doesn't matter if you have one child or ten children, 11
- 39:14each one is different, so. Sometimes it's those
- 39:17relationships and how we develop them that also impacts our
- 39:21parenting. And like I said, we're really
- 39:24excited to start that next little series in our podcast and
- 39:29also getting feedback. And that's the other thing.
- 39:33Christy will post the question on our Facebook page and about
- 39:38your experience. And yeah, we welcome your input.
- 39:41We want to hear the experiences that everybody's happy.
- 39:45Yeah, we're really excited to read them.
- 39:48And the other thing is too is you know if if you you have a
- 39:51story out there that we find really interesting, we may touch
- 39:55base on it a little bit at the start of our next episode.
- 39:59So we can just kind of talk about what that is like for you
- 40:02guys and if it's fascinating when we want to share that as
- 40:05well, you know, do a little bit of follow up on it.
- 40:07So once again, we encourage you and we ask that you do some
- 40:13feedback with this. You know, we really enjoy.
- 40:15Hearing the feedback and knowing what your thoughts are, you
- 40:19know, on the different episodes and share with us.
- 40:22Yeah. And we really do appreciate, we
- 40:24have a lot of gratitude for everybody who listens and
- 40:28follows us and we're very grateful for that.
- 40:31And we're excited if you continue to do that and be on
- 40:34this journey with us. And so until we talk next time,
- 40:39we hope that you guys have a really great, amazing, wonderful
- 40:43week and we will touch base again next week.
- 40:47Bye, bye.
