... The Digging In The Creekbed First, let me say that as a scientist,I tend to be very skeptical -- I think that almost all unusual phenomena have a rational explanation somewhere -- although sometimes highly unusual in itself. I also know that science cannot (at least yet) explain everything that happens.

My brothers and I grew up in an old (for Colorado) stone house that was built in 1872 (as an aside, I still live there). By all "rights", the place SHOULD be haunted. Right behind the house is a sandstone shelter cave that was used for at least a couple thousand years (off and on) by Native Americans. The house was used as the center for a tuberculosis patient camp for many years. Alferd Packer, Colorado's
