Strange/Wierd/Scary moments in the field....
I just wondered if anyone else has had any strange events while being out in Mother Nature. My wife and I were talking on the way home from the lease this weekend and this exact subject came up. Tell 'em if you got 'em.
Here's mine. Back in the mid and later part of the 90's I was a big waterfowl hunter. I was hunting geese/goose on a dried up rice field. We turned off the paved Hwy and hit a gravel road that led to the gate into our pasture. We (my buddy and I) parked just inside the gate and got out. Nothin' unusual yet.
It was still very dark, about 5:30 am and we were at the back of my truck getting our gear for the walk into the field. Off to our right on the gravel road that we just came in on, we see headlights. We weren't expecting any other lease members to be there that morning but I thought that might be just what it was.
Well, we're not paying any attention to the vehicle but when we look up, the vehicle is now IN the rice field adjacent to the one we are parked in and soon to be hunting. The field was dry but it still has the burms/levees (whatever they are called) running all through it. These levees are about two foot high and 2 or 3 feet wide.
Well the vehicle head lights are not "bobbing" up and down as one might expect from going over the levees. STRANGE part #1.
The vehicle is on a straight line for us through this field. As it reaches us, just on the other side of the fence, it turns parallel to us and we can now see what type of vehicle it is. STRANGE part #2.....an 70's era Cadillac
The dome light was on inside the vehicle (WHY?) and we could see someone inside but we couldn't make out any distinct features. The vehicle was on the opposite side of the fence at about 20-ish yards. The vehicle didn't stop and eventually drove away without making any contact with us.
We looked at each other and then went hunting
Strange part #3...When we left, we followed the same way as when we came in. Where the vehicle entered the rice field, there was no gate or opening, just solid 3 strand barbed wire
We talked about it on the way home but I got "nuthin"
The red line is the solid fence......The yellow line is the path the vehicle took....Notice the levees in the Google Earth pic
