Later, Dave told me everyone could witch for water--you take two metal rods and when they cross there is water under you. I thought that was something my "Grammy" taught my sister and I to do to get us outside and get us out of her hair. He said he did it at work when he worked for AT&T, looking for water pipes and buried electrical wires.
Anyway the husband didn't find anything inside, but said there were spirits all over outside and he could see them a lot when he drove by at night. He also got out his St. Christopher medallion necklace and hung it from his hand. It started swinging around, pulling towards me, then pulling towards his wife. That was the coolest thing I saw all day.
He also asked me if he had a broom. I went and got one and he explained that it would stand up straight because of the solar flares that have been hitting the earth in the last day or so. It was a "corn broom" so the bristles are really uneven and it's kind of rounded. It only stood up for a second or so, but I really wanted to see it stand up on its own. No such luck, so I called Dave and told him to try it. It stood up for about 5 minutes before falling down and I tried it myself tonight:
It's been standing up for about 10 minutes now on its own.
Dave thinks it's because the bristles are holding it up. I think the real test will be trying this when there are not solar flares hitting the earth. Verna, my volunteer at Buckland Station, and I tried standing the broom up for a long time after that guy left...we really wanted to test it out, but the other volunteer, Richard, was the only one of us to get it to work.
Has anyone heard of this phenomenon before? Do brooms really stand on end when solar flares hit us? Hmmmm...........

I vote crazy guy, but either way that's pretty awesome. I have to say I've never seen a broom stand up on it's own before. :)
