The Route 26 Bigfoot Incident
Well, here I am again. It's been a while, as I've been trying to boost my Bigfoot Tales project on Facebook. That's not working out so well so I've decided to pretty much terminate my pages there in the near future.
So what have I been up to?
Due to some injuries sustained last year I haven't been able to get in the woods like I used to. But I've still been busy.
Today, I want to share a brief Bigfoot tale of a sighting along route 26 in western Maine.
I ran in to a gentleman in a parking lot that was discussing something he saw while driving west on that scenic Maine route. Apparently this was at dusk, so I place the time at around 8:30 pm given the time of year it was.
He looked to his left, which places the incident to the western side of the road. He observed what he thought was a big man working in his garden.
The figure stood up, holding root crops in both of its hands, but instead of it being just a big man, it was huge, and looked to be about 8 feet tall.
He slowed down quickly and stared at the giant figure. He told me it looked like a giant hair covered man. The figure turned and disappeared into the tall brush at the back of the garden.
Just then a friend of the man I was talking to walked up and put an end to our conversation. I saw him once more after that, but he wouldn't give me anymore information. He swore that what he saw was real, but he didn't want to talk about it again.
Apparently he was told that people who shared these sighting events were ridiculed and he couldn't afford that sort of publicity.
That leaves me without any substantiation to the story. So, somewhere in western Maine along route 26 there may be a Bigfoot lurking around stealing food from your garden.
Until next time, happy Bigfoot hunting!

Analyzing Bigfoot
There are many out there in the world of Bigfooting that feel compelled to analyze, or nitpick if you will, every up and coming video and picture claiming to be the million dollar shot of the big man himself. Granted, most of these videos and still shots are nothing more than easily explainable phenomenon such as peradolia or simulacra, but more often than not, just an imagined shape caused by a combination of shadows, lighting and blurriness fueled by an aggressive imagination.
Truth be told, I've probably taken hundreds of these shots, and thought they were pretty good ones. At least until I was able to get them home and run them through my software to see what it really was that I was looking at. But I do have some good ones, though not definitive in their quality and thus useless as providing truth of this creatures existence. This is where the difference lies with many of us out there. Some of us will examine what we have before we present our evidence, rather than letting our exuberance rule the day and running home to post our work as soon as we can.
However, this post is not about those of us who post our own work, but about those people who post the work of others under the guise of such loosely bandied about terms as "breakdown", "review", "analysis" or other names. Usually these sites and posts, whether in video or other format, are designed to sensationalize the video itself, rather than to provide an in depth analysis of the work in question. The big question here is: is it right for these videos to be made?
The obvious response is that of course they should, its a good way to expose hoaxers and scammers. But then, are they really exposing hoaxers? Or are these analysts really just taking advantage of someones exuberance? Granted, the bulk of these videos do expose poor examples of proof, as well as outright scams, but they also provide a reason for those who may have some viable work to present from coming forward out of fear of ridicule.

the State of Bigfoot Hunting Today
It's been over a yeat since I've written anything here on my blog, but I have been busy reasearching and trying to learn all I can about this subject. Bigfoot Tales is what I am all about, but I though I would climb back into the blogging saddle by taking a quick look at some of the trends occuring in this "genre" of interest, if you want to call it that.
One of the most, if not the most popular thing going is the much touted, as well as maligned TV show, Finding Bigfoot. They begin their next season this month by presenting a new show called "Supernatural Bigfoot. " I'm not sure as I would take the show in that direction, but as I've said before, it,s not my party.
Is Bigfoot a supernatural being? In my opinion, no. for one thing, things that are supernatural are not of this world, and as such cannot leave physical evidence. But we do have physical evidence. However, many insist that things that are supernatural can also be physical and thus there will be viewers and followers that will embrace whatever is presented as valid content.
This brings me to a second, and as I see it, dangerous trend to insist that Bigfoot is descended from the Nephilim. This also is a false theory with no basis in fact. Everything I have read concerning this theory is based upon mere supposition and cobbling together loosely connected tales and suggestions.
I have covered this aspect briefly in some of my writing and video work. Misinterpreted ancient writings are generally the foundation of the Nephilim claims. Sometime in the future I intend to go more in depth with this particular angle.
Thus far, in spite of the video and photographic presentations to accompany the claims put forth, we still have no proof of Bigfoots existence. We need to fix that, but this will not happen until we learn to take the time to analyze what is presented and filter out the false data.
