Ghosts--Seriously (Part 1 of 3)
First off, let me preface this post by saying
that I pride myself on being a rational thinker, a skeptic of things paranormal.
I don’t honestly think ghosts are involved here, but one particular tombstone
has me scratching my head.
Check out the dark stone along the road, on the right side of the photo.
Finally,
right up close, with my JFK 50 Miler ball cap on top to give you an idea as to
scale.
It's not menacing or spooky, just more of an observation.
I have a couple other ghostly anecdotes from my local runs that I'll post soon.

The
cemetery here, the larger one of two close by my home, is big enough to have a
couple of paved lanes thru it. I frequently run thru this cemetery, and as a
matter of respect, I always take off my hat, and if there are visitors present,
I detour and don't run past them.
Here
is the dark tombstone, centered and a bit closer.
The
tombstone is about chest-high. That is, it's chest-high today.
I've not measured the stone with a tape but I have the feeling that its height
changes. Much like, say, when you see your adolescent niece or nephew after not
having seen them for 6 months or a year, you KNOW without actually measuring
them that they have grown. They are taller than before.
Same with this tombstone. After a hiatus of some
weeks or a couple months without running through the cemetery, when I do, I
know that the Statler tombstone is taller than it was before.
The first time I saw this phenomenon, I literally stopped in my tracks. Can I
prove it? Of course not, but it is taller, just as in the niece/nephew example
above.
