Happy New Year to All!Things have been running richly and deeply here at Bigfoot Books these days. We have been made into a cartoon character, appearing with Bigfoot in an online animation, among other things. More on that stuff later, but first we need to announce that Yours Truly will be on the online BlogTalk Radio show run by Abe Del Rio and his Minnesota Bigfoot Research Team (MNBRT) this Monday. Also appearing on the conference call will be our research partners Ian and Robert Leiterman.That's Monday January 3rd, at 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time, so adjust for your time zone. Don't miss it; but if you do there will be an archived podcast available to stream or download. We'd appreciate your live listening, and questions, chat or call-in comments.

Steven,
ReplyDeleteNice research and great pictures. While the PG film wasn't that long ago, look how much has already been lost. (exact documentation of site) As a Child, my first exposure to Biggie was at the Capitol Theatre, a documentary of sorts. It was the 70's.
How about all that snow and rain the West Coast has been getting hammered with?!!It might provide some excellent opportunities for a siting, or to see snow tracks. Of course, it has to impact the Bigfoot hard as to food resources. Perhaps Gift a little, and you may get to see one.
I am now in Southeast Wisconsin, but there are local woods and I always keep my eyes open. I spent some time in Osseo Wisconsin, Northern Wisconsin, Minnesota border area, where many Bigfoot sightings were made. Beautiful area, low human population, lots of good habitat. No personal sightings, but I sometimes had the feeling of being watched. It is a very hilly region, with many Amish farms. I did much bicycle riding there, and one day went by the local Amish schoolhouse while the Children were outside playing. They were amazed at the sight of the Bicycle, ran to the fence and were pointing and laughing. They had never seen a bicycle before! (I was in the Sticks!) So, as Biggie would have been to me, a bicycle was to them. The Amish don't mix too much with "modernized" humans, so I couldn't help but wonder, given the remoteness and wildness of the area, if they were familiar with Biggie. My bicycle would appear to them as an unnatural part of the World, while to me a sighting of Biggie would appear "unnatural", or really unexpected. How far us "civilized" folks are really removed from nature.
Enjoy the Winter! Good luck Squatching. I enjoy your blog, as always...
