0:30.4	This story is true about what my husband experienced one summer in the mid-90s while working as a groundskeeper at a camp for kids.

1:59.6	Usually, the property was really quiet and it would actually get boring out there with no one to talk to and nothing to do.
2:06.6	Eddie once told me that he would pass the time by canoeing around the tiny lake, which was more like a large pond,
