Greetings friends,
For a quick note, this is the first time my wife and I have posted or joined this website and are pretty interested in some of the stories here. In June last year was our first "expierience" with orbs in St. Augustine at the Hugonot Cemetary. It was awesome and we were really curious. Later, in October, we went to Ohio and visited some local hot spots and are waiting for pictures to be developed. But the most recent is the best in our opinion. So here is the meat and potatos.
July 2, 2004 - Antioch Cemetary, Valdosta, GA - We visited during daytime to find one grave on the edge of the property almost forgotten and over grown. As I approached the grave area, the local wildlife got real LOUD. My wife and I had to shout to each other. Noted that spot. There are two parts to this cemetary, one is relatively new with graves from 2003, but still has some from early 1900's and the other fenced in area has civil war era graves dated as early 1790. We noticed it was not kept up and most of the headstones are just laid out in a square and the area is not mowed or anything.
july 4, 2004 - Same Location - Nighttime Visit - As I wanted to confirm, I went near Sally's grave, the one we noted the loud animals from 2 days earlier, and took digital photos. Once again, the animals got loud as I got within ten feet and one bright orb was captured. We then moved around the cemetary and all was still, no wind. After a while, we were ready to head out and I wanted to snap a few pics of the older area. Just before leaving, I decided one more set of pics from the road towards Sally's area of the grave. As I snapped the first pic, my friend (never been on a hunt before) says, " what the heck was that?" As I snapped the picture it looked as though we were surrounded by glitter and such blowing by on a still night. Pics reveal lots of orbs. Pic from few seconds later is empty from same angle and position.

Hey Sally and others...
A tutorial for uploading photos, videos and EVP is in the works. I hope to have it online later this week.
