Mysteries of the West Mesa “Another Sighting of the Man in Black “

Mysteries of the West Mesa
“Another Sighting of the Man in Black”

On a dark night, while all the guys were off helping a neighbor, all of us gals were hanging out at our place.

Suddenly, all at once, the dogs started barking, motion detecters, and lights went off. With the dogs by my side, I went out to see what was going on.

In the glow of a security light, I saw a tall, slender man in black. I asked him to leave. stating that if he comes closer, the dogs will attack on command.  But without saying anything, he slowly walked closer. I gave another warning. Asking him to leave.

He still said nothing and walked towards me. I then gave the command and all the dogs charged towards the man in black.

I then rushed back towards the RV, yelling for them to call the guys! The dogs know to only chase for a short distance before returning.

We did report the man in black and did not find any other traces that night.

Why is the man in black here? What does he want?

Living off-grid in the middle of nowhere in the desert.

What is it like living off-grid, in the desert, in the middle of nowhere?

We get asked this question often..

Well. here is our answer…

Living off-grid , not living the “society” norm has been one of the best. while the hardest things we have ever done.

To name a few pros and cons to living off-grid in the desert includes

A LOT of sand, heat, wind, beautiful skies, views, quiet, wild animals, nature…

Great neighbors, Washboard roads, live music, campers, sky gazers, wind, private events, movies, and a safe place to just be yourself.

wind, heat, family, plus much more. 

Oh,  and did I forget to mention the wind?

If you don’t mind these things, then this may be your type of lifestyle.

Mysteries of the West Mesa
“Sighting of the Man in Black”

While a neighbor and his family were traveling to town. They all noticed a person dressed in all black standing between two other neighbors’ residence.The man in Black was standing still watching them drive down the road.

The neighbor slowed down to get a better look at this man in black. But as soon as he slowed down, the man took off.

The neighborhood watch searched for the man or for any evidence of him, but nothing was found.

Who is this man in black? and why is he here?

Mysteries of the West Mesa “Hiding “

Mysteries of the West Mesa
“Hiding”
While sitting inside relaxing the dogs started barking and acting aggressively. Brent went outside to see what the dogs could hear. After walking around we could not see anything.
Even after he went out the dogs seemed to have become even more aggressive. I decided to check the cameras while the search continued.  When I checked the camera that had been under the Greenroom. I saw one of the most frightening thing I’ve ever seen.I saw what looked like someone hiding under the Greenroom.  (Photo in the video is the actual photo from the security camera) But by the time Brent went back out and inspected the area noone was there.

What do you think?
Was it a person, object? Or something else?

Mysteries of the West Mesa “The man in Black”

Mysteries of the West Mesa
“The man in Black”

Starting in June of 2023

While a neighbor was out on his daily neighborhood watch. He noticed a man in black walking around another neighbors’ driveway.
Thinking it was that neighbor,  he waved and headed home. Once home, he found out the neighbor  where he had  seen the man in black at had been out of town.
He rushed back to find that the man in black was gone
Upon further investigation, nothing appeared to me missing, or disturbed. Other random sightings have been noted of this man in black.
Who is this man in black, and why is he here?
To be continued….
