You mentioned you had RA. I’ve had RA for 22 years with 9 orthopedic surgeries. Lived in WA for 6 years and my RA was off the chain. Surprisingly we traveled to New Mexico and I’ve been in remission without meds for 2 years now. It’s my opinion it’s solely because of the 10-25% humidity.

Back in the early 60’s, I was about 6 or 7 years old living in Glendale, OR. My Mom took me to this lady’s house in Quines Creek. I got bored listening and asked if I could go outside. The lady said her husband was working outside, under a shed on the car. He was busy and not into talking. There was a field, the ground was wet, so perhaps a meadow. On the other side of the field was lined with tall trees, like an entrance to a forest or the woods as we called them. I glanced down, wondering if I’d get in trouble if I got my shoes wet and noticed huge footprints. I walked back to the shed to look at the man’s feet/shoes but they were very small comparatively. I went back to the footprints and counted the toes. I began following the tracks and when I got about a third of the way to the woods, I looked up and standing in the shade of the trees at the edge of the field was a Bigfoot. I didn’t know what that was at the time but it was a naked, hairy man. The tallest man I’d ever seen. When he saw me looking at him he shifted his body a bit and suddenly I was frightened. I turned and ran fast back into the house. My shoes were muddy and my mom yelled at me to stop as I came in the front door and to go to the porch and try and clean my shoes. I started telling her I couldn’t go back out there because of the giant hairy, naked man. I remember she told the lady I had a large imagination. She didn’t believe me. I went out, removed my shoes and rushed back in. No one believed me and as a young child, that broke my heart and ruined my confidence. But I know what I saw! I’ll never forget it!

Semper Paratus Mayor Bill! I was in the Coast Guard in the late sixties stationed on Government Island Alameda, California. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to stay in the Coast Guard due to an injury. I learned a lot while I was there and the only regret I have is not being able to do my entire enlistment. Great organization. The closest I got to the merchant Marines was spending time in US PHS hospital in San Francisco after I was injured. I spent about a month there and enjoyed meeting folks and all different states of physical health as well as shooting pool with the guys in the psych ward upstairs, so it was an interesting experience, thank you for service. Take care.

Damn those pics are amazing of the boats taking on big waves. And as far as the Sasquatch goes, I saw something this spring I can’t explain riding my dirtbike. It walked an away slowly and disappeared. All I saw was a huge back with grayish long hair hunched over moving real slow. I’ve seen tons of bear, mountain lion, elk, goats etc… but never have I seen a beast like this. Washington state Gifford Pinchot.

...Thanks for your note, its appreciated.. Nah, I/we discussed that very thing, in depth, in a previous post, you can scroll down and read the details in the string for yourself.. But in a nutshell, they were 2 partners who got into a feud after the fact over what to do 'with' the film. So, 'Gimlin' decided to dis-credit 'Paterson' with a cheap ape suit and some Bigfoot shaped sandals. To combat 'That', Paterson gave the Raw film to Kodak, who broke it down frame-by frame.. The creature "IN" that film is still up for debate, no question... But the Film 'itself', as survived many-many attempts to tear it down and is, Still the "smoking Gun" of sightings... Thats not Me say that, Its Kodak... Thanks Again....Bill

When I moved to Oregon, my aunt regaled me with stories of bigfoot & I admit I rolled my eyes at every one. On a road trip back from California, we took the coast route Hwy 1. There is a stretch of highway were it is as straight as a pencil & you can see traffic ahead for miles; there is thick chaparral on either side of the road. We were on this stretch, on a weekday so there was no other traffic in front of us, when I saw a monkey in the distance amble across the highway towards the beach on all fours. I couldn't tell exactly how big the creature was as it was hunched over & about a mile ahead but it seemed juvenile. People have told me it was a beaver but the gait was definitely that of a monkey, I'll swear to it. So I'm a believer now. On a side note, my neohew is with the coast guard and soon to be stationed here. He actually wants to see a bigfoot & believes they exist. He's going to bring his motorcycle & hopes to tour the woods.

It's a shame that people got the jackassed notion into their heads that the bigfoot is a subject only fit for ridicule and recrimination. I'm not sure where such a stupid prejudice came from. We don't mock people who've seen sharks, or bears, or what have you, but folks still love to make fun of a bigfoot witness. Makes me a little bit more ashamed of the human race, but what can you do?

Enjoyed every minute of your tale and will TRY to be a quiet ‘lurker’ amongst your digital friends. And feel compelled to ‘introduce myself’ and tell you a sincere “Thanks Man… for the effort of sharing!” *met the Coast Guard - did NOT deserve nor get a handshake - when, after ONLY 7.5 hrs of boat ownership, I managed to set the Lil’ beauty on 🔥! Met the Long Island fire crew and EVERYONE ‘knew’ of me at the entire marina as ‘Koresh Upon The Waters’. 🫠 Introductions are important, right!?
