Close to Kankakee River in Starke County, IN - Summer 2001

Rented a house for a few months near Robbins Ditch. The house is just below a hill covered with trees. Our dog seemed more than nervous and dug a deep hole in between the doghouse and the tree ( where the doghouse sits). We put up a clothes line by the doghouse. There were no limbs hanging until the next day. The limbs looked bowed and I couldn't put clothes to dry because of the limb bowed in the way.

One evening I drove on the way home on one of our roads and saw eyes reflecting from my head lights, the heighth of a grizzly bear standing on two legs in a wooded area to my right and then I saw what I thought looked like a small monkey (with thick limbs) running across the road!

Another evening we came home from church and my family went into the house. I had to get a few things out of the car and I was whistling a lively gospel song. Out of the woods I heard a loud shrilled whistle ---as if whatever wanted to communicate back but I just ran quickly into the house
