I was born to Swing, with Jazz, in Ole Timey Country. I cut my teeth on Jerry Lee Lewis. I am a child of the marriage of Rockabilly and Johnny Cash, a 'tween' of the Beatles and a follower of Jimi Hendrix towards the rebellion of Black Sabbath. I got married to the Moody Blues and Deep Purple and I had my children among the Stones with The Who. The middle ages moved around the Cars and parked next to the Ramones. I smiled as I saw my grandchildren born Rancid and I look towards old age with the Bastard Fairies by my side.
I am the music and the music is me...without it...
I am into non-fiction pretty heavy...especially history, political science, archaeology, religions of the world, mythology of all Peoples, the occult and the paranormal...except UFO's
I have been many things in the first half century of my life but I have always been
a think for yourself type of gal.
My goal in life is to smile in my coffin.
I love my family...............they are my reason.
I live for
The Earth...Our Mother...............The Children...Our Future.
The Woodland is my Temple
I am an Artist
Sculpture..Painting..Photography..Illustration
I like cemeteries.
I grew up walking through cemeteries with my Aunt tracing our family tree.
I am of Scottish, Welsh and Native American heritage (Ojibwe) and have always had the knowledge of 'Spirits'.
I have never doubted that there are other dimensions surrounding us that we cannot always see. Being a homegrown Missouri gal, I lean towards the skeptic side of paranormal investigation.
I lived in a house for 22 years with poltergist activity but I have never seen a visual form.
My mother calls me a Dreamer. She says we have always had Dreamers in our family.
By Dreamer, she means someone who dreams messages or future events.
My Father was a Dreamer. My Aunt was a Dreamer.
I spend alot of time in the UK throughout the year and enjoy going through their ancient cemeteries and haunted locations. I have begun researching cemeteries in the UK.
No, I am not a cemetery stalker,
I am an artist who likes to photograph tombstones, sculpture and night photography.
I am reading more and more about paranormal investigation techniques, and I learn some from IAH, but I do not belong to a 'group' and I have never been on a 'group' investigation.
I have been watching paranormal groups with a sociology perception and find the culture interesting..but..only from a distance so far. Not interested in jumping into the middle of backstabbing, social climbing, and idol worshipping.
It is my hope to find a group that is 'none of the above' someday,
but I am a nomadic world traveler at this moment on my life's path
and commiting to any organization is difficult.
I have never been one for organized religion,
and I am sorry to say, the few groups I have thus far been exposed to,
are just that.
For the moment I am in the UK
BERRY POMEROY CASTLE
Below are slideshows of Berry Pomery Castle, one of England's most haunted castles, located near the village of Berry Pomeroy in Devon.
When I went there for the first time I had a wonderful time and would recommend it as a must see if you are ever in Southwest England!
In my blog, "Can Cemeteries be Haunted?" I talk about a cemetery where I get a lot of unexplained images. Below is a slideshow of that cemetery. I am still doing the historical research on it but it was established in the 1400's as a chapel, that is the first written mention of it on record. There is evidence of a burial ground having been at this location since prehistoric times. This is located in a small seaside village in the southwest of England with a strong Celtic tribal background.
The next two slideshows are the same cemetery at night.
(Please note, some of these images are shot in a series with a six second interval between shots. They are placed in the order of being shot).
To understand more about these images read my Blog on this page.
It is a not-for-profit organization that offers Indigenous Peoples of the world a vehicle to network through the Arts for the promotion of peace, cross-cultural understanding, tradition and language preservation, self-advancement, education and youth opportunity on an international level
All the Peoples of the world were Indigenous Peoples at one time. All Peoples of the world have held hands and danced in peace to honor the earth at one moment in our Human history. The need for the world to hold hands, dance in peace and honor the earth has never been as prevalent as it is today nor as important to the future.
The Arts have the ability to stretch across the canyons separating all cultures and all ages to form a bridge on which Peace can cross to begin the healing process and is the core of all that is
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but in strengthening ourselves to go on in spite of the danger. ~Mark Rutherford
