Give me another day or so on the pictures, I'm wiped out from being up all day so I don't really feel like getting them up for you to see tonight, sorry.
Right now I'm sorry I mentioned that special on the Mothman, that so-called investigation was nothing but complete garbage. The show looked like it was a bunch of amateurs making home movies of a prank mockumentary. They based their entire investigation on the twisted and perverted Hollywood "facts" of the movie The Mothman Prophesies, but NOT ONCE did them mention John Keel's book of the same name, from which the movie was based. The book contains a lot of the evidence those whiny wannabes complained about not having at their fingertips. All they had to do was read the end credits to the trash film and find a copy of the book, in Point Pleasant, I guarantee you'll find a copy easily. Also a point of fact, the investigation process into the Silver Bridge collapse had the entire structure of the bridge removed from the water, except for the road decking which had crumbled to nothing. Considering forty years of moving water, a couple floods and all, the cars that were never retrieved are probably down rivir near the next lock and dam rather than sitting there where Silver Bridge used to be. so their logic was flawed in the attempt to search murky green-brown (that water color was very real) for forty year old physical evidence, it just ain't going to be there, any idiot would know that. Needless to say, if you watched that special, you got an hour of complete trash.
It's been so long since I took the tour of Moundsville myself, I don't remember all the detailed accounts of prison horror stories. Those investigators did a good job, but they didn't go out into the yard where the old execution chamber was. That yard with the rusted fence and razor wire at the top, that was on the site of the execution chamber. They also could have looked at the electric chair in the musium part of the Prison, would have been interesting to see if they got EMF spikes near the chair which hasn't seen electric current in years. The reaction they had upon seeing the place, that was accurate though, you come upon it and it like leaps out of nowhere at you. The creepiest thing about Moundsville Prison, is that when you're in the yard, you don't hear anything from the outside world, no birds, no cars, no trucks, nothing, it's like you're in an isolation chamber, and all you hear is your own breathing when the guide isn't talking. I'm a bit disappointed with their findings, but they didn't really do the building as thorough as they could have.

That's great news, it means you should be getting better. I can't afford an ice storm, too much needs to get done.

It usually takes a promo for something that interests me to get my attention, that's how I found Ghost Hunters, and Mythbusters (Discovery Channel), both shows I like. Other wise I stick with my regulars.

I don't have that patience either, that's why I give up on keeping up with a show if it doesnt' stay in the same slot.
The trail photos will be delayed again, I'm too tired to really get them up right now.

Even if you're not into the Paranormal, watching a show like that will give you a great insider tour of a wonderful historic place. Moundsville Prison has been there since the late 1800s, it's got quite a history to it.
The pics will be up another day, but they will be up.
That Mothman thing was a complete waste. As I stated before, they based their investigation on Hollywood fantasy, not reality. I don't trust the show Sci-Fi investigated because they grossly overlooked a lot of evidence that was right under their noses. Crypto-Zoology is the study of creatures which modern science doesn't recognize yet. Anything on the same vein would fall into that category, Nessy, Champ, Sasquatch, Mothman, they're all creatures that science says doesn't exist, but they're out there somewhere.

It was horribly worse than the movie, but I ranted on them using the movie as their primary basis for the investigation already.
The photos will be up tomorrow hopefully, and the drawings, well they'll come up in little bits at random as I decide which ones I like and submit them for posting.
