History of “Gone Squatchin”
ok really, it comes from the word sasquatch. What is that ? Well you probably heard of Bigfoot. He is s “large hairy ape-like creature, ranging between 6–10 feet (2–3 m) tall, weighing in excess of 500 pounds (230 kg), and covered in dark brown or dark reddish hair” as described in Wikipedia.
That scares the “____” out of me. I remember as a kid, sitting around a campfire listening to people tell stories of our how a Woodbooger was seen all kinds of places.
Some people really believe these creatures exist. They track sighting’s, watch video, and visit the places bigfoot was seen. Seems looney toons to me but who am I to say Bigfoot doesn’t exist. Who am I to say the skunk ape or the loch ness monster don’t exist. Why not ? These people research the existence of the creatures and are determined to understand one of the great mysteries of our lives. Is he an animal, a man, a monster, an ape or simply a figment of our imagination. What do you think ?
