- 0:20Speaker 1: one place. Enjoy the exploration. Hey, thanks for being a
- 0:25Speaker 1: part of the conversation. Welcome to foest Stories, a series
- 0:28Speaker 1: of short winded adventures within a collection of skyscraping trees,
- 0:32Speaker 1: stuck feet First and Georgia Clay right here in Carolina.
- 0:35Speaker 1: It's been a huge part of my daily journey for
- 0:37Speaker 1: over thirty three years. I Am the Poet in the Forest,
- 0:40Speaker 1: a children's series written and recorded in the nineteen nineties.
- 0:44Speaker 1: It's grown into multiple podcasts that now reach around the world,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and none of it would be possible without this forest
- 0:49Speaker 1: right here in South Charlotte, North Carolina, at the base
- 0:52Speaker 1: of Heartbreak Hills. It's a sign that reads Rainbow Forest. Well,
- 0:56Speaker 1: it's time you get to meet what's inspired several generations
- 1:00Speaker 1: long before the paved paths decorated with colorful homes colonized
- 1:03Speaker 1: around this beautiful lake, slow moving stream, flatland swamps and
- 1:07Speaker 1: array of natural animals. There were families and business owners
- 1:11Speaker 1: who are said to have raised into this area for
- 1:13Speaker 1: the beauty of the land, wild roses, migratory birds, and
- 1:16Speaker 1: wild grapevines. Those before me either forgot to write about
- 1:20Speaker 1: it or it's buried somewhere inside their family tree. Hey,
- 1:24Speaker 1: thanks for being a part of the conversation.
- 1:28Speaker 2: I've got to give you an update on what is
- 1:30Speaker 2: going on with these three crosses that suddenly appeared on
- 1:33Speaker 2: top of the soil with my boy, boy boy Ernie.
- 1:36Speaker 2: And the thing is, though, according to the research that
- 1:38Speaker 2: I'm digging up, basically pardon the pond, but it says
- 1:43Speaker 2: this is very very natural for something like this to happen,
- 1:47Speaker 2: especially when it was in the soil two and a
- 1:49Speaker 2: half to three feet deep. It could be the earth
- 1:53Speaker 2: is moving. Now, I have read so much about that
- 1:56Speaker 2: and heard so much about that in my thirty four
- 1:58Speaker 2: years inside this forest, that the earth does move, especially
- 2:01Speaker 2: during the drought season. It's constantly moving, and that the
- 2:04Speaker 2: earth itself was saying I don't think so, and it
- 2:07Speaker 2: actually through when we were digging it back in January
- 2:10Speaker 2: of twenty twenty six, that there was loose enough soil
- 2:14Speaker 2: there that the physical movement of the earth today pushed
- 2:18Speaker 2: those three crosses back up to the soil. Now, it
- 2:21Speaker 2: could also mean tree roots or animal activity. We talked
- 2:25Speaker 2: about the moles, we talked about the squirrel. I don't
- 2:28Speaker 2: understand the big clump of hair that's out there. I
- 2:31Speaker 2: don't know if it was a deer. But once again,
- 2:33Speaker 2: there is no physical evidence of any type of digging
- 2:36Speaker 2: and or a shovel that went into the soil. So
- 2:39Speaker 2: the tree roots and the animal activity, I'll look into
- 2:41Speaker 2: that to find out if there's such a thing, but
- 2:44Speaker 2: I'm leaning more on the earth moving. Another thing that's
- 2:46Speaker 2: pretty interesting is that it says that just because it's
- 2:50Speaker 2: very dry on top of the soil because of the drought,
- 2:52Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that beneath the soil that it's just
- 2:55Speaker 2: as dry. It's that when we dug back in January
- 2:58Speaker 2: of twenty twenty six, that it was very possible that
- 3:02Speaker 2: it was already in movement because the earth itself once
- 3:05Speaker 2: again is constantly moving, which we do fear in this
- 3:08Speaker 2: forest all the time, because that's when we start losing
- 3:10Speaker 2: a lot of trees. Now, what makes it very eerie
- 3:13Speaker 2: for the human ear and eye is that our brains
- 3:16Speaker 2: expect buried things to stay exactly where we place them,
- 3:21Speaker 2: two and a half to three feet below the surface,
- 3:23Speaker 2: right next to my boy boy earning the soil is
- 3:28Speaker 2: actually doing the moving. There's no signs of digging whatsoever.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Nobody came by and intentionally put those out there to
- 3:36Speaker 2: freak out the poet of the forest. People throughout history
- 3:39Speaker 2: have interpreted events like this as being spiritual, symbolic, and emotional,
- 3:44Speaker 2: especially when it involves a place tied to a place
- 3:47Speaker 2: of grief and memory. The emotional connection can make the
- 3:51Speaker 2: moment feel much bigger than ordinary ground mechanics. Wow, so
- 3:58Speaker 2: did we or did we not wake up? If you're
- 4:00Speaker 2: a guide or keeper, I think we're still too early
- 4:03Speaker 2: in this, but we now have evidence of something is
- 4:06Speaker 2: on the move. Hey, thanks for being a part of
- 4:08Speaker 2: the conversation.
