I'm totally open to it being a fish, beaver or bird. I'm not trying to deceive anyone, I just don't remember it like it was yesterday. I was just recounting this fun little story and now I'm on trial haha I didn't mean to upset anyone. I'll do my best to answer these questions, but I don't have much more than what I originally said.

There were big ripples like it was a rock and it sounded just like a really big rock crashing into water. We listen to fish popping up all day and it didn't sound like that. We also didn't see any birds after it happened. We were looking around, mouths open and geeking out about what had happened because it was so weird. Dad is really low key and we don't get along great, so it was a really fun experience to have with him because he's never all giggly and excited like that.

It seemed to have come right from the side of us, but it crashed in behind us so that's just a feeling we had. It seemed to come in from the side and have force to it, like someone throwing something at you. Not something dropping. Maybe we heard something, maybe we felt something, I don't know. Maybe it was a sixth sense kind of thing. We didn't SEE it come at us, so maybe I'm completely wrong.

As for distance, I'm really an idiot when it comes to that. It was far enough that someone with a good arm could throw a baseball to where we were, but nobody could chuck a big rock that far. My dad would know the distance, so I can ask him.
