to get the hell

25SEP25

out of Dodge

chase the uncaught
if you so elect
& end up getting taught
to show some respect

in your coat of Gore-Tex
& boots by Danner
learn that bigfoot expects
you to show some manners

big rocks he thows
your way they soar
uses them to show
your way to the door

to expell
you from his lodge
to get the hell
out of Dodge

know he threw them
to keep from revealin'
can refer to him
as Matt Dillon

reason he cloaks
so you can't see
this isn't Gunsmoke
on your TV

I am in the holler this morning. I am going to try to get the drone in the air this morning and test some new propellers. And I will also be checking to make sure that I have about 3 cameras ready to go for the Woodbooger Festival. I may try to make a short video of the goose and the donkey that have become fast friends in the field across from the house. If you haven’t seen them there is a picture of them at the beginning and the end of the “bush hogging up in the holler” video. You can find that video in the Drone Flyover Video section in the Drop Down Menu.

The leaves are just starting to turn a little bit. So my heavy rotation of drone flying and filming is still probably a couple of weeks away. In the upcoming weeks and months I will be redoing the Drop Down Menu. I will probably be adding a section that links all the bigfoot videos in the blog. I will also be adding a section that lists GoPro videos on the blog and you tube channel.

I hope you have super Thursday. Smile a lot!

Poems

you know a rainbow

24SEP25

it needs the mist

it is the storm
there you will learn
live in it's dorm
take your turn

you will get wetter
if you get caught
it is so much better
to be storm taught

we are all under
some type of construction
let the thunder
deliver your instruction

is what you like
the best for you
let the lightning strike
test if it is true

your soul knows
it almost insists
you know a rainbow
it needs the mist

bigfoot in the tree line
cloaked in the unknown
he does not mind
getting soaked to the bone

I am loading the car this morning and heading to the holler. The next post should set sail from there. Enjoy your day. Try to smile quite a bit!

Poems

be the thunder

23SEP25

that knows no borders

sing your song
let it fly
& take you along
thru it's sky

bend the notes
be the bell that tolls
let the wind float
well with your soul

bang your drum
make it sound
as they listen from
down on the ground

some things matter
like the truth
let it fall & splatter
on all roofs

be the thunder
that knows no border
you travel under
Heaven's orders

the love you put
through out your sound
will reach even bigfoot
out on his rounds

I will probably leave for Virginia in the morning. That will give me one or two days to settle in before the Woodbooger Festival. Some of my cameras are older. But for the you tube slide shows it really doesn’t matter. On almost any camera that I use I will be encouraged to resize the photos to a lower resolution to improve workflow and performance in the editing process and on you tube. Most people seem to be viewing the videos on mobile devices or tablets so there is not as much concern about detail as there used to be. I am tempted to just shoot the pics in a lower resolution to begin with. But just in case someone asks for a certain pic I plan to keep shooting in the higher resolutions. Learning to jump thru the tech hoops is good for me. And it is fun. It is more fun after you have done it. But a lot of life is probably like that.

I hope that you have a great day. Lead with a smile.

Poems

time to see

19SEP25

more than before

big is the key
to the door
time to see
more than before

it is long
a mighty stride
the siren's song
will not be denied

righteousness glistens
as the gavel falls
at night trees listen
to the travelers' calls

Daniel with the lions
interpreting dreams
more energy in the mind
than it seems

the mind has wings
with a mighty span
can do almost anything
it thinks it can

For those of you who are new to the blog you may want to check out the drop down menu. There are different topics listed with links to different videos.

Enjoy your Friday and weekend. Fill it with smiles.

Poems

lightning striking

18SEP25

around the tree

lightning striking
around the tree
we're all hiking
to what will be

don't have to guess
the price to pay
our time is less
every single day

be quick to see
and avoid the rot
time looks free
but it is not

we each get a set amount
before we fly away
so make your time count
every single day

find the groove
that moves your soul
learn to move
like the bigfoot roll

Enjoy your Thursday!

Poems

on the darkest night

17SEP25

on land and sea

like the birds
eloquently it sings
I have heard
wisdom has wings

shines a light
hands a key
on the darkest night
on land and sea

it is to be sought
it will reward the work
for it to be taught
well that's a perk

the way of the wise
learning and knowing
helping others recognize
and keep on growing

help the mind small
get big as can be
like the one tall
there behind the tree

Enjoy your Wednesday. Smile as your dip your toe and swim in the river of wisdom today.

Poems

he is the rabbit

16SEP25

in the top hat

bigfoot is subject matter
for the soul
he is the mad hatter
down the rabbit hole

can become a habit
he's good at that
he is the rabbit
in the top hat

he is the present
you'll not open soon
he is the crescent
in the moon

you will study
that cat almost daily
he is your buddy
with a top hat & a ukulele

there will be no tuxedo
or that type of costume
bigfoot will need no
outfit to wow the room

I am in the middle of trying to put the photos from the Red River Gorge Bigfoot Fest 2025 into a you tube slide show. It will probably end up being 2 or 3 videos. A lot of the pics of the people wearing all of the different bigfoot shirts are kind of fun to look at. There are a lot of smiles. Bigfoot can usually be counted on for that. I would like to get that done before I take even more pics at the Woodbooger Festival in Norton.

Once I figure out a way to share the experience better on the blog I will probably start attending more of the bigfoot conferences and festivals across the country. We will embark on a journey together thru the world of bigfoot in pop culture. It sounds like a lot of fun. Time will tell : )

I hope you have great Tuesday!

Poems

do not assume your values

15SEP25

are the same

bigfoot is as humble as can be
scripture's power in his hold
he is the bumble bee
as the flower unfolds

he may scare
at first sight
but his only care
is to do right

he will allow you
to leave as you came
do not assume your values
are the same

makes quite an impression
once you've known him
has no possessions
to own him

I hope your week gets off to a great start! Sometimes Mondays can be a challenge. I hope this time yours goes well!

Poems

they already know

13SEP25

too much about us

the answer is no
nothing to discuss
they already know
too much about us

want to be friends
we always insist
and they pretend
not to exist

we probably fail
every type of test
as they set sail
not that impressed

all of the sasquatches
listen to our tune
decide as they watch
not anytime soon

my confidence I keep full
for me it's easy to see
it must be the other people
the problem can't be me

Enjoy your Saturday and weekend. Try to infect someone with your smile today!

Poems

all of the sasquatches

12SEP25

say “not for me”

it is my life
it's passing me by
cuts like a knife
makes my soul cry

it is new fangled
flowing and clean
it is a rectangle
a glowing screen

the case is beveled
to attract you
the work of the devil
is to distract you

not holy not fair
its song is sung
it slowly lets the air
out of our lungs

bigfoot watches
stays behind the tree
all of the sasquatches
say"not for me"

as the screen glows
and imparts information
it seems nobody knows
the art of conversation

There is a new video in the drop down menu. It is in the Drone Flyover Videos section. If you are on a mobile device or tablet you can access the menu by tapping on the 3 slashes in the upper right hand corner. They will take you to the home page, the drop down menu and the blog posts. If you are on laptop or desktop the menu should be across the top of your screen.

In the Drone Flyover Videos section the newest video will be at the bottom of the list. My next few you tube videos will probably be bigfoot festival slide shows. I have enough photos from the Red River Gorge Bigfoot Fest 2025 to make 4 or 5 you tube slide shows. And I am planning on taking some photos at the Woodbooger Festival in Norton VA. So they will probably make their way on to slideshows as well.

I have several projects planned to shoot with the drone. A lot of those may be on hold as we wait for the leaves to change in the next few weeks. Once the leaves do change I will probably be filming just about every day to take advantage of the window before the leaves fall from the trees. Some projects I may shoot with the leaves and look at it on the computer screen and then decide it would be a better view of the actual subject without the leaves. I guess that is enough of me meandering on about what may or may not happen : )

That is not really worrying but one of my favorite quotes does talk about worrying and the fact that not every thing happens that we think is going to.

My life has been full of terrible misfortunes, most of which never happened.

I hope that you have a great Friday and weekend! Try to make someone smile.
