I can remember like it was yesterday. I was on my dad's ranch in Abilene, TX on a hot day with a breeze now and then. I was the age of 10 at the time that this occured.

Our ranch we had was 425+ acres, with 3 fields, an old barn, 2 stock tanks and wild game. well, my dad left for work around 6:00 that morning and i was left alone, so i thought. i was in the field north of our farmhouse digging for arrowheads and Indian beads (i found alot of artifacts in the area i was digging in) as i was digging i stumbled upon one carved precisely out of stone with jagged edges on them. as i was celebrating my victory l looked up a little ahead of me, about 50 feet or so and saw a man walking across our field. as i was carefully hiding in some brush trying not be seen, i was watching the tall man walk at a steady pace not making any noise at all. as a peered closer, i noticed him wearing yellowish hide like the Indians used to wear from buffalo hide or deer hide. then i called out: "what are you doing on private property?" then the Indian looked at my direction, then kept walking to the tree line at the edge of the field.

after this happened, i went inside and called my dad and told him it was an emergency (which it wasn't, i was just creeped out) about 20 minutes later he came and i told him what happened. and like most people, he said "its just your imagination."

about 2 weeks later this happened again except near one of the stock tanks. i was measuring how low our tank had got since the previous month, and i was on the bank of the tank when all of a sudden, i looked up and there was the indian again, walking past me. i yelled "hey old friend." and he looked at me again, except this time he looked a little longer."

after this occurred, i thought it would be respectful to place the beads and the arrowheads where i found them. for the last 3 years i was there, i never seen him again..

i will never forgot about my first ghost experience, since then i have had more, and will write about them.
