Do you beleive in "Ghosts?"

Do you believe in "Ghosts?"

Believe it or not that is Vegas Bob 300 feet up on the side of the "Cosmopolitan Building" in Las Vegas Nevada. What is Vegas Bob doing this far up on the side of a building? Inspecting the (Glass) to make sure it's sealed right!

And what is with the hat and the weird clothes? That is a hardhat that must be worn to even get into the building project, the yellow straps going around my chest and around my arms is a fall protection harness in case the lift I am on fails or breaks I won't fall to the ground and die, and the white cloth around my ears is so I don't get sunburned from the reflection of the sun hitting the glass.

Anyway I was goofing around and snapped this photo reflection off the glass and I sent a text message to around 8 of my family and friends, one of my friends mentioned to me that all this white looking smoke around my arm and face is a "Ghost" or spirit.

So I took a look at the photo closer because I really didn't get a chance to see the pic when I was up there because it was to bright from the sun.

I have seen "Ghosts" several times in my life when I was growing up and I believe this "Ghost" or Spirit to be that of my mother that passed away 2 hours before I took this photo.

It's just another way of her letting me know she is still with me in Spirit because I didn't get a chance to say Goodbye!

PS - There was no smoke coming off the glass and I did nothing to this photograph, what do you think it is?

Several years ago we were doing a remodel and all the photos had "spots" of varying size ... Since there were several of us involved there were multiple cameras, different times of day and different frames of reference .... Odd, at the least ..... so yes, I believe that smoke, spots and/or whisps of smoke may be something out of the ordinary.

So sorry you didn't make it to visit your mother before she passed away. The white "puffy looking stuff" could quite possibly be her passing through your space.

I do not think that I believe in ghosts, but maybe this photo could convince me otherwise.

Looks like a sun beam and dust in the air to me VB...but, with all the extraterrestrial stuff going on around you, maybe it is a ghost!

School is never out for the Successful.

I'm sorry you'll be going the rest of this earthly road without your Mum. I lost my Nana on Mother's Day a few years ago. I don't find that sad. I would have wonderful thoughts of her on that day anyway. My world is a little smaller without her.

I don't believe in ghosts, but it's fun sometimes to pretend that I do, like when I go to a haunted house or haunted hotel!

VB, the one thing I have to say first is, nevermind the ghost...

300 feet up?????

OK, now that I got past that, very well could be. You know I believe.

Of yes. I had an encounter in my teens. Just thinking about it makes my hair stand on end. My Mum and I were up late one night actually talking about the haunted castle the Scots Army put our family up in shortly after the end of WWII. They were in Edinburgh at the time.

We were in our dining room which had a patio enclosure addition off the back. The addition was completely locked, doorknob, deadbolt and even a slide chain. We were interrupted by three forceful knocks on the plate glass window. When I opened the door to the addition from the house, not a soul was there and the locks to the outside were intact. Very creepy!!
