Incident at Salt Lake - Part V

Then I saw what I call the Bobber up ahead. It was about 100 feet in diameter, with a dark gold bottom and top, and a wide red band in the middle. It was perhaps 100 feet in the air. There was something 'attached' I think to it. This was dark gold all around and had an acorn-shape to it. I call it the Lure. It was doing something. It seemed like it was moving, going higher or twisting in a radical way, very fast. It didn't go very far, and it was hard to see in the dark and at a distance of about 500 feet.

Whatever. I turned my attention to the Black Checker to see if it was still there. It was.

So - now don't judge me here, I couldn't think - I went ahead and started for it. I went up to the trailheads, one was 'walkers' and the other 'riders' (I guess horses were allowed there), and I chose the 'horses', thinking that perhaps it would be more scenic and therefore more attractive to ET. Why, I don't know. These parasites do not care about anything scenic. I know that now. I didn't then.

Anyway, I got further and further into the trail, and I kept watching the Black Checker. I noticed it had moved into the marsh. But finally, I knew there was no way I was going in that hell-hole. I knew it, and it kind of relaxed me yet angered me at the same time. If I wasn't going into the marsh, then I knew in the back of my mind I would never meet ET. But if that was the case, then why was I still pursuing the Black Checker?

You can see the state of my mind at that time. No rational thought, yet still capable of making decisions. It was a crazy time, and one that thankfully is over. But is it? Well, you can make that decision later. Right now, ET is still within reach. I thought.

I continued to see the Stingers and the Sleek. Always within reach, always unreachable. And of course, the Light Escort which was always present. Always beckoning me into the marsh. I turned to go back to the main street. I just wanted to get something to drink. Looking for a gas station, an all night store, anything to get something to drink.

I got back to the little park area and noticed a drinking fountain! YESSSS! You can't imagine how excited I was to find a little drinking fountain. The water wasn't even cold, but it was the best tasting ever. If I went back there today, it probably wouldn't taste as good, but at that point, it was ambrosia. Isn't it funny how that happens?

Anyway, I got back onto the main boulevard. All the constant traffic somehow gave me comfort, but ET wasn't done with me yet. He still had plans to make me suffer. At least that's what I think he was doing. He didn't want me dead, I don't think. Clue number 6.

The Light Escort was up there, insistent in its presence. I yelled to it "Get me home, I am lost!" It seemed to understand, I thought at that time, so I followed it. Remember, I am fatigued, bruised-both physically and in my ego- and in no condition for rational thought. So I followed the small comfort I remembered early in my relationship with the Light Escort.

I walked for what seemed like miles, always seeing the one thing which never came down from the sky - the Triangles. Now, I want to make something very clear here. There are different Triangles. The first night I went out in hopes of meeting ET, a thin Triangle about 40 feet from point to point had landed and put out what I think was a staircase lighted a dull orange. I never got close enough to verify that, but I am pretty sure that was it.

However, THESE Triangles are SO ENORMOUS not even a football field could accommodate them. And there are many. Many. So there they were, out of sight, yet it plain view. To those who notice that is. Most of us are so busy just existing that we sometimes never learn to live. And so ET seems to know that, and take advantage of it. How else could the Black Checker be a mere 20 feet off the ground and have all these cars zooming under it and NOT ONE car ever stops, slows down, or seems to notice?
