After dinner, we sat around and told stories of the supernatural.
Each person spoke slowly, their eyes a little bit distant, as they carefully remembered a moment that still, after all these years, they could not explain or entirely believe.
“…And then the balloon deflated and fell to the floor, and we knew that he was gone.”
“…On the window, the silhouette of a dove in the frost, and I knew then that she would be alright.”
“…My knees were shaking as I got out of the car to take a picture of the lights, I mean, I had absolutely no idea what they might have been.”
“…I looked up and saw a figure standing in the window, and thinking it was Brian, I waved, but when I got to the house, I found out that there was actually no window in the room I had been waving at.”
The photographs were taken by the most excellently talented Chris Parson (http://www.chrisparsons.ca/) at Cliff Island in August 2009.
