We thought it was fun at that point. We were like, this is cool. Like, this is cool. This is like a fun, it's like, like I said, it's like a party trick. He is eternally skeptical about, But I think like even things will happen now. And he'll say to me like, if it doesn't happen to me, I don't believe it. So at that point, we had already signed the paperwork.

So it was not even like we had an opportunity if we were like, wait, this is sort of like could have changed our offer on the house. We didn't even have that opportunity because everything had already been signed. So it wasn't like we were mad about it. You know, we still loved the house. We still do love the house. But we basically took the keys and we left. That was it.

We get to the house, like one of the first things we do, Mark actually was traveling. I'm remembering now he was traveling for work a lot at that time. So I think I actually moved into the house without him initially. Francis and I were in the house. One of the first things that I did was I pulled all the boxes out of the basement and I brought them upstairs. and started to look through them.

They were meticulously organized. So there was an inventory list with codes for everything, including the GPS location, exactly where on the property everything was found. And inside, man, there's so much cool stuff. A lot of it is really old, like, Pequot artifacts. Like, arrowheads, obviously, but also pottery and old bits of clothing.

And then through colonial times, so, like, lots of stoneware, painted ceramics, like, children's shoes. And then a lot of animal, or, I mean, I think animal, some of it is unknown, but bone fragments, like, there's... horse jaws and old pipes and like bone pipes. So like a lot of really cool and pretty creepy stuff, a lot of bones down there. I kind of love creepy stuff.

And again, like at that time it was just entertainment for me. So I was like, this is weird, but I also like, I love history. And I was, it really got me super interested in like the history of the property and who had lived here before, because there was so much. And even like, you know, my first month living here, forgot to mention this, but like there's gardens all over the property.

I'm looking at them right now. There's like five stone garden beds. There's a raised garden. There's all this hardscaping with perennial flowers. And the first month I was here, I would find arrowheads like every other week, like just on top of the dirt, like as if somebody had placed it there. Just like beautiful stuff, old milk bottles and old ceramics. Like there's just stuff everywhere.

So I just got really, really interested in the history of the property and who had been here before me, because it obviously had been inhabited for a really, really long time. So like I said, Mark had been traveling a lot at that time. And around February, so like two or three months later, was when it stopped being fun. At this time, my bedroom was upstairs.
