A Day At The Beach In SW Florida
69
This weekend my Sister and her four kids came down from Canada to enjoy our warm 90 degree weather which they could not believe because leaving their home Thursday morning it was in the 20s. Our town is really one of the best beach towns anywhere because our town is bypassed by all major roads and we sit out on a peninsula. Our beach water is at 75 this time of the year and of course the first thing they wanted to do after getting here was going down to Middle Beach, I have been there many times and have never encountered what we did today.
As we drove the long winding roads to get to the beach I noticed a lot of traffic, and thought maybe it was Spring break people, and they seemed to be going to the main beach, we have three of them, one is accessed from the south in our town out to the key, another Manasota beach is accessed to the north and then you have Middle beach in between the two. We went there because its one of the many beaches that lets you bring dog's with you so I brought my Mini Dachshund, and my sister had her Yorkie.
So we got there and found there was a few people laying out, but all together not very crowded, we set up our spot and the youngest kid she is 4 was sleeping under the umbrella we brought to setup, as the older kids were playing in the water. Me being a native to Florida 74 is to cold for me to swim I like 80 and up so I stayed up with the youngest and was just laying out getting a tan while she slept 2 feet away.
After only 5 mins I peaked over and she was gone, I did not fall asleep, or hear anything. I thought my sister may have got her and took her down to the water, but as I walked down to the water and my sister looked at me I could tell she was asking why is the youngest not with me. I ran down and told her what had happened, and she ran up to check and the kid was gone so we started a search, there are no lifeguards on duty there. Since I knew the area I searched the parking lot, and woods nearby why my sister looked up and down the water.
We were talking to each other the whole time via cell phone as we searched and we had no luck so we headed back to where we had set up and were ready to call the police to help when we found her back under the umbrella like nothing at all had happened, my sister woke her up and asked where she had gone, and she said she was playing with the Indian guys, and the little Indian girl. I found this very strange because not even a few hundred yards away there is an Indian Mound where many Colusa Indians we laid to rest. While we were searching for her my dog was pulling me towards the mounds and I did look all around there.
Indian Mound Park date back as far as 1000 BC to about 1350 AD. It is not known whether it was built by the Colusa or Timacua Indians, since the midden was very near the border of where these ancient Indian tribes lived.
So what happened, I am not sure growing up here I have heard over the years that area is Haunted, but never really believed it. My niece is now asking if we can go back and see them again, asking why they did not have cloths on. I have no clue what to make of it maybe she has some abilities??
