Gifts should be shared

November 3, 2009

Despite the fact that I live a very isolated existence (partly because of living 60 miles outside of the nearest major city and partly because being a full-time Mom doesn’t leave time for a social life), I’m constantly amazed at the close friends I’ve made across the country. They may not be near, but they are very, very dear.

Every now and then, one of my friends creates a special gift for me. Since my friends are almost ALL bigfoot researchers (GRIN), I usually get bigfoot-related gifts. Which I LOVE. I wanted to share them with you.

The most thorough field report I’ve ever seen… and a word about asshats.

September 6, 2009

Holy Cow! :D OB member Nancy just sent in her field report from her and Bill’s latest outing to the Shasta/Trinity area and boy, was it a doozy. Uploaded today are 16 pages worth of detailed field notes, 45 sound files and over 130 photographs of tracks and other evidence. This is, by far, the most detailed research report I’ve ever seen. Kudos, Nancy, to you for your dedication and incredible thoroughness! You are an amazing woman and a credit to our field!

More thoughts on the Gable Attack Film

July 28, 2009

My friend, Clint, was over yesterday. I wanted to pick his brain about the Gable Films.

Clint is a full-blooded Cherokee and an avid elk and bear hunter. He’s out in the brush nearly every free moment, hunts with a bow using arrows he fletches himself. He makes primitive weapons and teaches primitive hunting techniques. He’s works in the medical field. I figured he’d be the perfect person to ask.

He’s never seen either one of the films, so I explained how they came about. We watched the original Gable Film first.

Life is Like a Box of Chocolate-Covered Ants?

July 27, 2009

This post really is about Bigfoot research. It just may not be immediately apparent.

Sometimes, things happen in our lives that cause us to stop dead in our tracks and take stock. We come to a crossroads; we get blindsided and end up reevaluating everything. Everything we’ve done, everything we are… and where we’re going from here.

To loosely paraphrase Forrest Gump – Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know which ones will be sweet, and which ones will leave a bad taste in your mouth. (I know that’s not exactly what he said, but it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve misquoted a movie.)

I finally did it. I’m blogging.

July 18, 2009

It seems that almost everyone has a weblog these days. Except me. It’s amazing that someone who works with computers on a daily basis wouldn’t have joined the blogging revolution until now. But I hadn’t. I dabbled a little, I guess. But nothing serious.

I had the Oregonbigfoot.com newsletter to help me stay in touch with all of you. What more did I need? Except, the newsletter took DAYS to ready for publication, and with a two year old, I do not have days. Or even hours. So I’ve decided that maybe a blog is a bright idea after all. So I’m trying it.
