I gotta post this one. We always go here whenever we nearby. You are instructed to stop your car on a white line at the bottom of the hill and take your car out of gear. You actually do roll backwards up the hill. Here's the legend but I still haven't figured out how it works and always amazes me.





There is one of those roads in L.A. as well. It's called "Gravity Hill." I've been there, and that is what happens. Funny how they're turning up all over the country now!"

heheh Nope not irish, but, I guess we share some of the same local legends?

There's a local legend of an indian burried near here. He was supposedly a medicine man and vowed to come back from the dead. Well there is a spot on someones farm where you can dig in the dirt.

After a few shovels full you'll hear something scratching. Sounds like something is trying to dig its way to you as you dig to it.

That's the medicine man trying to dig his way to you.

I've been there and dug in the dirt and heard that scratchy sound as if someone's digging back to me.

common thought says that it's a trick of sound bouncing back from the rocks near there.??

If you take a needle and thread and poke the needle into the middle of a pencil eraser. Then hold it over a girls hand you can tell if she will have children, how many, and if it's a boy or a girl.


I think with women that were pregnant a small circle meant girl. and a straight back and forth motion meant boy? Not to sure now hehe. :o)
I remember this test being done on several girls who were pregnant throughout my life time. And it really usually seemed to always be right if it said she was gonna have a boy it was a boy.

if it was supposed to be a girl.... it was a girl?

If you wash laundry between Christmas and New Years, you will "wash out" someone in the family the following year, i.e. a member of the family will die.
Generally not a suspicious person, I would shake my head over that one until there were family members in shaky health. Darned if I don't let the laundry pile up then. Good thing dh didn't grow up with his aunts reminding him every year. He isn't shy about throwing a load in.LOL

heheh.. :o)

I've always been told that if you spin yourself around in a chair it's bad luck. And the only way to stop the bad luck is to spin in the opposite direction 3 times. :o)

If you plant a pine tree and it grows tall enough to shadow your grave you'll die.
