My love affair with The Myrtles Plantation began when I was a little girl. As a summer day trip, my grandmother and mother brought me, my best friend, and younger sister on a plantation-jaunt around lovely St. Francisville in Louisiana. Of all the beautiful antebellum homes we visited that day,Continue Reading
This morning on the news I heard a story that made me mad: how some airlines are now charging for blankets. At first, I thought maybe I was dreaming. After all, I wasn’t quite awake. My husband had turned on the TV to see if he could get a weatherContinue Reading
Today, in honor of Flashes in the Dark posting my story, “Between the Wolf and the Dog,” I’m going to make a sort of a different Haunt Jaunt. In fact, today you might notice an International theme. I’ll launch the journey with this post on France’s Morvan forest. Later thisContinue Reading
Today Gary at Ghost Theory posted “The end of Nessie: Researchers fear Loch Ness monster may be dead.” Gary started off his article saying how, as a kid, the idea of the Loch Ness Monster fascinated him. Me too. But, also like Gary, the older I’ve gotten the less inclinedContinue Reading
I don’t know about where you live, but it’s cold here in Nashville today. Not as cold as a lot of other parts of the country, but darn cold compared to what it should be. Our highs the last couple of days (upper 20s, low 30s) have been what ourContinue Reading
Okay, I think Smartphones are pretty cool. I haven’t admitted this to anyone before, but I’m fessing up now: I secretly want an iPhone. At the moment I can’t afford one, and Heaven only knows what I’d do with one if I got it. (Likely get in more trouble thanContinue Reading
I always learn something when I travel. Which is nice. Then I can pass the tips along to others who might not have thought to ask certain questions or taken certain things into consideration before setting out on their quests either. On our Haunt Jaunt to Key West and NassauContinue Reading
Just a quick note to say I made it back from the Devil’s Triangle alive. We had an amazing vacation and I even did manage to con Wayne into a bit of Haunt Jaunting. (While we were in Key West at least. Didn’t get to do any in Nassau.) However,Continue Reading
I am super excited to announce that I will be adding two extra prizes to my Halloween Gift Card Extravaganza Giveaway courtesy of PublishingWorks: Haunted Cemeteries of New England and Haunted Hikes of New Hampshire. I may have to adjust the name, since the giveaway will now include more thanContinue Reading
This week both Autumnforest of Ghost Hunting Theories and Julie at Above the Norm made posts concerning Chernobyl. Good topic as it was also the subject of one of the investigations on Destination Truth this week. In fact, Julie’s post was about the DT episode. Autumnforest’s was a video fromContinue Reading
Last week Gummerfan wrote about Land Between the Lakes. It reminded me that’s a place my husband and I have not yet checked out, but one that was on my list. I mentioned reading Gummerfan’s post to my husband. Wayne promptly suggested, “Let’s do it this weekend!” So, inspired fromContinue Reading

Today I discovered another one when I read an article published by The City Wire about the new “Haunted Arkansas” web page on the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism’s web site. Haunted Arkansas appears under theirContinue Reading
