Alcona County Michigan (Class B) BFRO

June 2018

My husband, me and a couple of friends besides my nephew, son and niece was out side. We live on a dead end in the country across the street is nothing but woods.. Anyways our friends was getting ready to leave so we was walking them out while we was walking out the door we smelled this foul smell I don't know how to explain it.. I asked everyone if they smelt it and they also did to.. Mean while we are talking about 10 mins after we came outside we heard a w-h-o-o-p sound right across the street from us like it was right there! My husband then runs in and grabs his gun we send the kids in not knowing what it was he comes back out and then he makes a whopping sound back at it.. It then proceeds to whoop back at us but the sound was down further then what the first one was..
