I've lived in Oregon, east and west, all my 63 years. My favorite Bigfoot story is probably the Harry and the Hendersons movie. Not much of a believer. My 40 acres near the coast is a little valley backed by forest and clear-cuts. Actually just a few weeks ago, I did have an unexplained experience though. I was doing some work up the hill, when I heard something like wacking a bare log with an axe handle, followed by a loud whoop. Yep, just like the movies. I don't know of any neighbors that would likely do that, but who really knows their neighbors? I got back to work and didn't give it another thought till now. Maybe if I watch Harry and the Hendersons with my granddaughter I'll share it. Thats it! Forget I said anything.
