A Bump In The Night
AM-Day 8
September 21, 2019
It was a dark and non-stormy night at the lighthouse...when all of a sudden CRASH! BOOM!
We both sat up straight in bed. It was around 2am, so this woke us from a sound sleep. We both sat there a moment and tried to identify what just happened.
You can probably guess the first thing that went through MY mind...
"Well, here we go...it was a good non-ghostly run until..." I started.
"Oh, good grief. It's not a ghost." Mr. Quilter Cook tends to be a little snarky upon waking first thing.
" Didn't you say you had orbs in your photos earlier today?" I decided that it was 2am and there was no better time to get to the bottom of the matter.
"Yes, but...forget it." He rolled over and went back to sleep like most rational people would do.
But not me. I waited for more paranormal activity. Would I suddenly feel cold, would I see an old light keeper before me? Would orbs begin swirling in front of me in the dark? Hmm...I waited...I waited...nothing.
The next thing I knew, I was waking up.
It was 6:15 am. I rolled out of my Abe Lincoln bed and walked into the kitchen to make coffee. Getting up out of those beds are more fun than getting in.Especially when you are half asleep and caffeine deprived.

"I found your ghost. The rack we switched in the gift shop fell down. Sorry to disappoint you." Mr. Quilter Cook was quite proud of his finding. Again, a rational explanation can be found. Naturally, he was up before me to investigate and explain this all calmly and without emotion. Uh huh. He could have just as easily popped that shelf off himself and produced the so-called evidence.
Upstairs, we have a museum display about one of the light keepers who committed suicide. He jumped off some steam ship and drown himself out in Lake Michigan. It's my guess he also got tired of all the vacuuming after hours and tossed in the towel.
Could it be he doesn't like the new display? Hmmm....I'll keep you posted.
Have a great day!
I'll blog tonight!
