I was living In marion county Fla.in 2005,In salt Springs Fla. 8 miles east off of high way 19 very close to Lake George And Its spring water boils.It was Late one night on a summer night I was standing in the Kitchen something caught my eye out the back window and it a first glance I saw what I new wasent A monkey or a bear I have seen both at night.It was steiring right in at me. for a split secound I turned my head and looked back and it was gone.
I tryed to think at was just my imigation all of that night and buy morning I had dismissed it as just my amagination.
untill courious me went out to look for tracks below the window under the window were I had seen it peering in at me just 7 hours before .what I saw still freaks me out today there were dried footprints on top our our a/c that he was standing on to peer though the window a good 10 feet or better from the ground.
