Lets Talk Paranormal

So many times we have been in some very remote back country of the Sam Houston National Forest, when suddenly we come upon a bit of trail. These trails are all but gone, eaten away by the weather and time till all that’s left is just a whisper on the forest floor. We will follow them to see where they go and try to  read the story they have to tell.I believe that some of these trails were made by Indians going about there daily life. But still others end at the waters edge of lake Conroe. Disappearing forever under the lakes dark waters. There their story’s mostly untold.

You see man has flooded much of the land around the lake to make it larger and deeper. The waters have covered towns and their graveyards, old homesteads and where the Indian’s made their homes and buried there dead.

So its no wonder why we encounter the paranormal sometimes while doing our research in these areas.” We have found a grave today on the side of an old road. This road just appears out of the forest floor. But we are not the only ones who have found this old grave.

There are many offering left here by hunters and hikers. How so many people have stumble across this old grave is a mystery in its self. It is so remote here.

Travis it seems will leave an old cross he has carried with him for years. Look  how the picture blurs has he holds up the cross, and then look at the mist on my dogs back. Well it could just all be nothing but to me its strange. Until next time.

DNA Report

There has been many harsh words for Dr. Ketchum and her DNA report. I must say I feel sorry for her and those she chose to involve in this study of hers.

But I do think trying to map out these creatures DNA is a very good thing indeed. However I want to know where is the data. Where are all the papers that support all her claims.

I am not a scientist and I am sure I wont understand most of  this data. But I still want to see it. I want to see the work that was done. I am sorry but I just can’t take anyone’s word for all the extraordinary claims she seems to be making

These claims are not being backed up by the piles of papers one would think should be there.Michael said on my radio show The Texas Big thicket Watch, Bob you don’t need a DNA test to know they a real because you have seen them.

Well that is more then true, I have seen them that’s one of the things that brought me down the path I am on now. But with that said, I don’t know what they are. God help me but I just got to know what these creatures are! I would retire from all this and be a happy man, If only someone can stand up and say oh they are this and  they are that.

But I know that a DNA study is not going to tell us the whole story. I am not prokill but until we have a body for years of study we will not have the answers we are looking for.

Don’t get me wrong but I want the DNA studies to keep on. The more we study their DNA  and with new breakthroughs in that field the more we are going to find out.

That’s why we in the field need to bring more DNA simples to the table for study. We need to learn to take these samples the right way. But God help me for saying this a body would help this whole field of study. It will let the skeptics’ know we were telling the truth.

But just having human DNA does not make you human or a hybrid. Look at how close chimps are and apes. They are not human.

We must Waite for the Oxford study to come out. It’s good to have more than one study anyway. I wish we had ten or hundred going on. The more DNA studies, to come pair with, I say the better.

My Long Walk

Since my first  bigfoot sighting at sixteen, my mind has been filled with dreams of them. My days reading about them. But when I turned eighteen all those dreams faded away. I didn’t have time to ponder if what I saw was real or a dream. I walked through a whole new world of pure hell and confusion. What had been me was gone and could not be found.

When I came home from that other world I found myself searching and looking at the piney woods beside my fathers home. Not to long ago I had felt at home in that forest. But I was old now. I felt to be a million years old. I was sick and empty inside. But than there it was, just for a fleeting moment. It was me what was really me.Beckoning for the shell to come into the pines.

I walked away from my father’s house with pack and canteen two good hunting knifes. No words were exchanged my father and grandfather knew I would be a long time coming back home. Because it had been the same with them when they took their long walk.

This is how all this started for me. You see I was not looking for the Boss Of The woods. I was looking for healing in the only place I knew and felt at home. The natural world was my home. And as the months and years passed by I saw the Boss more and more. Sometimes he would just watch me and when I would move on he would come to see how I made my camp, or maybe he would look for things I might have left behind.

He was not always there of course But many times I heard his calls echoing through the Big Thickets of east Texas. I was making my home in the same places he made his. So bumping into him was an occasional occurrence.

Sometimes like the big man I would stick my head out of those dark thickets and watch the cars speed pass on the rural highways. I know he did this because I have seen him do it. I always wondered what he thought of that other world, if he thought of it at all.” That world scared me, and like him I would pull my head back into the dark thickets and back away to let the darkness hide me.

I was becoming a wild thing myself. Loosing my mind and humanity so to speak. I have heard story’s of people lost in these dark thickets, for only a short time that when found were never the same. I have been living in them for two years now.

Ok this is just a test page from my book I have been writing I have several chapters that will soon be ready to type. I would love some feedback.

Thanks the Hermit
