Well, to start with before this weekend I have never seen anything I was convinced was a UFO, Ghost, or anything else, and I have spent many hours outdoors in the boonies!
Saturday night after a long day of hunting, the landowner and 3 of my co-leasers were sitting around the fire sipping beverages and trading stories. One of buddies said, "hey someone's comming up the mountain!!". This is impossible because we have a huge gate on the other end of the road at the bottom of the mountain. Well we all ran to where we could see down the road, and sure enough there was a blueish/purple irridescent light comming up the mountain moving very low to the ground and very irradically. At first we thought it may be a flashlight of a lost hunter or tresspasser. We started yelling and asking for them to come up the hill, well it just started acting weird and moving all over the place and i had a funny feeling this was not anything human, it never made a sound. Needless to say I had a round in the chamber and was ready to deal with whatever was coming up. Before long that light started bouncing up the hill at a very high rate of speed right at us and my heart was thumping! I was actually looking at this "thing" through the crosshairs, when it got about 20 yards away I saw that it was a dog, so I whistled and it came right to me. It had one of those radio tracking collar with a new feature I have never seen; a light that was supposed to keep cars from hitting the dogs. Well she was a fat beautiful walker hound with an ID collar and number. We called the owners who were some coon hunters, looking for a lost dog. I sure was glad to return her to her owners as she was grand night champ. bloodline and worth alot of $$$. I would have felt awful if i had shot someone's dog, as I am a dog lover! My buddies are not letting me live this one down as I was the first to grab a gun and I was freaking out! Until I saw that it was a dog, that was the strangest thing I had ever seen in the woods!! Sorry for the long post.
