Chris Holly spent a great deal of her life building different entrepreneur ventures, however her one true passion has always been writing. Long ago she found it far easier to explain the paranormal by way of a true story told in an interesting form. She lived a life filled with extreme experiences and unique events involving that which we do not understand. She felt it her destiny to tell these true events to the world by way of her short stories. Along with the Endless Journey and The Knight Zone site, Chris is working on a book. "I am doing a collection of short stories about my lifetime of paranormal experiences, which should be complete by the winter of 2009."

It has been a hard winter where I live on the coast of Long Island New York. Lots of snow, many cold days followed by ice slick nights. Walking, driving and keeping warm have become daily endeavors requiring time and effort. This winter has been a bear.
I grew up in the New York and New England area. I am not a stranger to winter. This winter is different. It is not only the amounts of snow it is very cold, bleak and gray. It is not the typical clean crisp clear winter days I have known all of my life.
Recently we had back to back snow storms. After the storms cleared off shore the work of clean up needed to be done. The roads, driveways and walks all needed to have the snow removed in order to return to normal life. Like everyone else my family and I bundled up and headed out to snow blow, shovel and plow out from the two feet of snow the storms left behind.
I was the last out of the house to help in the clean up. I walked out the back of my house onto a deck that is built high along the side of a hill. This deck overlooks the North Shore of the Long Island Sound with a wide open view of water and sky. As soon as I walked outside I looked up and stopped dead in my tracks. I just stood there for a few seconds looking.
My family was already pulling the snow blower, shovels and fireplace wood from the interior of our barn. I yelled to get their attention. My son was standing by the open barn door and yelled back " We already saw it- the sky, we know it is really weird".
The world was covered in a coat of white snow however the sky was a color I have never seen before. It was a shade of dark blue with a purple tint but bright and clear. It was without question the strangest sky I have ever seen. The color was unnatural. The bright glow of it hurt my eyes. In a word it was weird.
Along with the strange color and luminous glow I noticed a odd absence of any clouds or chem- trails or contrails. It was just one big gleaming odd color sky. As I stood looking at this strange sky I knew it was not natural. It was not as it should be.
My brother drove up to the barn to help us with his plow. He came stomping up to where I was standing on my deck. He took off his sun glasses as we stood over looking the water and the sky and said: “That is the strangest sky I have ever seen. I am going to go in and turn on the local news to see if they issued any warnings."
