A witness describes his summers on his grandfather's property in southern Ontario where he and friends encountered a UFO and possible Bigfoot activity associated with the sighting.
I received the following account:
"Hi Lon. Thanks for reading my email. We lived on my grandfather's property in the early 1970s. He had about 75 acres in southern Ontario, Canada near French River Provincial Park. On the property was a swamp. We hunted bullfrogs in the summer. There was also a beaver meadow that gave us an eerie feeling as if we shouldn't be there. Many times there were no sounds in that area, almost a dead zone. Occasionally, we heard a knocking wood sound, but at the time it was not a thing that we knew about Bigfoot. We didn't know creatures would do that.
My grandfather had an old sap shanty along the meadow that was in disrepair and it had started to shift and fall over. The weird feelings that we got when we were there were creepy.
One night, five of my friends and I were taunting each other to ride our minibikes back to the beaver meadow in the dark. I was lucky enough not to need an excuse to participate as my headlight wasn't working. Then we noticed a small but bright light coming from the beaver meadow and it hovered about 40 feet off the ground. It didn't move until all of us were looking at it. It suddenly veered to the left, fast enough to leave a light streak, like a sparkler when you swing it around. Then it stopped. Then it would start again for a few seconds, then it would stop.
This continued for about 10 minutes until it started to expand and change its shape. It was not saucer-shaped nor egg-shaped. It was more oblong. No lights were flashing and the whole craft gave off a bright white light. As we watched it seemed to grow ever so slightly, so slow that it took a few seconds for us to realize it was moving towards us. The area it had come up out of was about a quarter mile away from us. There was nothing in the field to impede our view. It was a cool night and no insects were making a sound.
At about 50 or so meters from us, we saw it clearly. It was bright white with no windows or external markings. The closer it came the clearer we could see what looked like a single object emitting a light that seemed to create a circle directly under it. It never sped up or slowed down until it hovered directly over our small group. It stopped without any sound and stayed in place for what seemed to have been a minute or two. We could see it was around 10 meters above us. It didn't spin or hum. It just hovered. We didn't feel any movement of air, no heat, or any other sensation. But we were in awe at what we were witnessing.
Then suddenly, it took off straight up and blended into a pinpoint of light among the sea of stars above us. We stood around for about an hour or so trying to figure out what we had just seen.
Just before we were ready to leave for the night, we started to hear the wood knocking coming from the woods along the beaver meadow. Frankly, it scared us. We quickly got on our motorbikes and hauled our butts out of there.
The next summer, three of us were near the beaver meadow one early evening. As the light started to fade, we again observed a very bright white object hovering near the woods. Suddenly, we heard 4 distinct and loud wood knocks, that were followed by a deep growling roar. We were frozen in shock. We looked in the direction of the woods and saw several lighted objects rising out of the woods, ascending above the trees, and quickly moving up into the darkening sky. Then we heard 4 more wood knocks and crashing sounds in the woods. We quickly got out of the area!
That was the last time that I ever visited the beaver meadow. My grandfather sold the property not long after that and moved to Guelph, Ontario. I never found out why he sold the property but I do know that he did so quickly." L
