beauty exists
in the in-between
it persists
even when unseen
not in cuffs
it is free
it is enough
just to be
our hearts know
it is there
all art glows
it always dares
seeds are sewn
put into our souls
freed and grown
where the bigfoot roll
we even know
its song inside
as we go
along for the ride
thru the veil
at long last
we all sail
under the same mast
Enjoy your Friday. Labor Day is around the corner!
28AUG25
the battle is fought
in our minds
the rhymes are caught
and on paper lined
our spirits are lifted
answering the call
of a cryptid
that's ten feet tall
like a Broadway play
try to raise the curtain
seems there is no way
to be absolutely certain
that will have to do
at least for now
do not expect him to
come out and take a bow
if you need
something exciting
go and read
about more sightings
as we inquire
and study the rumors
it all requires
a sense of humor
I am in a rush this morning. I am out the door for a medical appointment.
as you work your style
on this day
remember to smirk & smile
along the way
words to the wise

bigfoot is a car
needs no mechanic
if you go too far
there could be panic
you might find
the ride is plush
if you don't mind
having to hide in the brush
in the garage
not his style
makes his lodge
out in the wild
it'll be a good plan
if he can avoid collision
as good as he can
all of our vision
stands really tall
out in the woods
might answer your call
for something really good
a tasty treat
kettle ready to pour
his big feet
peddle to the floor
what's in store
no one knows it
open that door
can you close it
if you have to fill
up that big guy
expect a grocery bill
that's sky high
I hope you have a good day. I hope your car is reliable and that your groceries are nutritious and taste good to you!

amusement for our brain
helps it unlatch
sure to entertain
impossible to catch
the subject of debate
words cruel and blunt
out there he waits
to watch us hunt
studied on the android
studied on the iPhone
just to be toyed
with by the unknown
is he our brother
or is he the devil
more like on another
dimensional level
it is a school
that never ends
playing the fool
for our big friends
but during recess
every once in a while
we think about this mess
with a big smile
I am trying to get some loose ends wrapped up so I can return to Virginia and shoot some more drone footage of the scenery in Appalachia. I am making a list of some places that I want to fly the bird. It is so mountainous and steep with curvy roads that have overgrown overhanging trees that it will be difficult to figure out where I can launch the drone from. So on a lot of the missions I will probably recon one day and fly and shoot on another. A lot of things that make the area so beautiful also combine to make getting the bird in the air and being able to see it more difficult. And the FAA requires that you maintain visual contact with the drone at all times.
The light for shooting footage is usually best at sunrise and about the first hour after. And in that area that is a particularly hazardous time to drive because of all of the deer crossing the road. These days the deer are very plentiful. A couple of years ago at a family reunion I remember a cousin of mine saying that in the 70’s if you killed a deer they would put your picture in the county paper. These days you see deer all over the place.
The blog is still very much a work in progress. I am contemplating adding a bigfoot book review section and some type of listing of all of the posts that contain links to bigfoot videos to the drop down menu. In constructing the blog I have to keep an eye on what all the additions do to the speed and responsiveness of the blog when you click on it or items in it on your devices.
I hope you have a great day!

screams and shouts
as the rocks flew
questions and doubts
we've got those too
a giant mystery
to say the least
legend or history
of a mythical beast
are you cooler
what width do you find
when you take a ruler
and measure your mind
imaginary or real
and just able to hide
maybe a lot of the appeal
is the difficulty to decide
the ability to bore
bigfoot has none
he just opens the door
to some goofy fun
Today I will be working on getting a video of my brother operating a bush hog in the same field that the other videos were shot in edited. They bale the hay on the more level ground. And then they run the bush hog to clear the land that is not suitable to run the rake and baler over. I guess that you could say that the bush hog is kind of like a heavy duty lawn mower that they pull behind the tractor. It will probably be a slower moving video. But it should be up on the blog by today or tomorrow unless I run into some type of issue.
I hope that today is a good start to your week!

are you squirmin'
under a heavy weight
do you need a sermon
to set you straight
to help you stand
the storm to weather
fill your hands
with some calf leather
it may be time to skip
letting the darkness in
touch your finger tips
to paper like onion skin
it's all you need
right there in your reach
waiting for you to read
and hear it preach
out in the woods
in bigfoot's playpen
swore I could
hear an "amen"
Enjoy your Sunday! Unmask a smile. They are contagious!

you cannot protect
all of your bets
but what you expect
is often what you get
there is a curve
in this test
for what you deserve
expect the best
go ahead and smirk
that is okay
but you will have to work
along the way
protect your spirit
follow your plan
the future don't fear it
it is in your hands
the seeds you've sewn
will grow strong
this bigfoot has known
all along
yells from the trees
it is true
we know he sees
more than we do
Just because it is goofy does not mean it is not true. And I don’t mean bigfoot : ). I mean the thoughts that you have in and allow to run through and control your mind. I don’t think that many of us realize how important it is to focus our minds on good and positive things. And it is just as important to keep low and bad expectations out of our minds.
This has always been the message of the church. One of the many powers of prayer is that it makes you think about what it is exactly that you want to happen. And a lot of times someone can be so worried that they don’t even take the time to do that.
If you decide on and chart a course of action and believe that you will achieve your goal then you are probably well on your way. Your subconscious mind is very powerful and it takes a lot of its cues and instruction from what your conscious mind thinks and believes is going to happen. The human mind and subconscious is much more powerful and resourceful than most of us believe.
I think much more is possible than most of us know. And I mean besides there possibly being a bunch of massive beings roaming out in the woods : )
