Day 15 Berry Wine

Now it is getting colder at night and the Clan from Texas has build a nice camp fire. It looks like the whole Elk Bend Clan is out there. Both the Texas and the Elk Bend Clan is out by the fire. I see that Big Foot Jim and his group are heading out to the camp fire to join them.
Iam  going to let them visit a bit before I go out. The night sky is so clear you can see the light along the coast line. I was told that the Elk Bend Clan has a new member from Florida. He moved out here about 6 months ago. He came from the Tampa area, and his Clan was called the Lettuce Lake Clan. I know in that part of the USA the Big Foots were called Skunk Apes. He met one of the Big Foot females about a year ago. She pick him out as a possible mate. She said she would pick him if he would move to Oregon, or at least cost Oregon.
I smell wine or a heavy berry smell. Sasquatch Doug was telling me that it is an old Big Foot recipe. The wine is made from wild berry's.  Boy, dose it smell strong! Harry And Edith seems to be having a good time. Harry has been talking to Skunk Ape Mike about moving to Florida. I guess even a Big Foot wants to retire to Florida, thats a hoot!!! Doug is over by the motor home with the leader of the Elk Bend Clan. I see them getting a 5 gal. Bucket out of the back. Jim is getting some cups and passing them out for the berry wine the Clan made. I hope that if they get drunk they don't look at me as food.
It is real dark now and we can hear the kids playing. But I have no idea where the kids are. Everyone is having a real good time the ladies are dancing around. The guys are telling stories and talking business.
Skunk Ape Mike just said that Teenie wants to pick her  mate tonight. She wants to do it because everybody is here now. Harry's little brother asked Teenie if thats what she wants to do. She said that she has been thinking about it alot all day. Now we have to get all the Big Foots together that wants to become her mate, Her Choice.
I got to tell you that I was completely dumbfounded!! It was over in about a minute once she picked him out of the group. They are hitched!! Her and her new mate took off in a flash.
Night is over for me Iam tired and off to bed for me.
Your shirtless host
Thanks Teenie.

Day 14 meeting the Texas Clan

Iam going to call this Clan  the Nestucca Texas Clan. The wild life here is outrageous! The large Elk alone is one of the best thing about this spot.  I see Coyotes, Cougars and Deer are everywhere. Iam going to meet the Texas Clan soon, I hope. In the mean time, Iam going to take a hike up to the peak.
      Garrison just came over to the 5th. Wheel and he is still limping on his right leg. I hope he gets better soon. He wants me to come to the camp fire down the trail. Emma and Joyce are waiting for me, so Iam going to walk down with them. What a site! I saw at least 6 of the Biggest Big Foot that I have seen so far, around the camp fire. They must all be a least 8'+ tell. The kids are all running up and down the trails. Emma and the rest of the ladies are in a group with their babies. Doug and Jim and the Texas Clan are getting ready to go out and mark their territory. We are all waiting for the Elk Bend Clan to show up. I ask Big Foot Jim if he was going to show me how they mark the boundary's. He said that they have been marking the corners of the territory the same for as long as he could remember. What they would do is pull a tree up by its roots and turn it up side down at each corner. They would do this by shaking a tree until it is loose then pull it out of the ground and turn it root side up. By digging a hole a hole and putting it, in root side up. That shows other Big Foot the boundaries.
        We did alot of walking tonight . The Elk Bend Clan helped by doing the west side and we did the east side. All of a sudden one of the Big Foot from Texas took off running. I ask what was going on. Doug informed me that he saw a Elk and was going to get it. I was very surprised to see him come back so soon with an Elk over his shoulder. We are almost all done with everything. As we started back to camp, the Clan got together to say goodnight ( or good day ). Doug said that we will all get together tomorrow night and have a party. I felt so out of place. The only one that Iam teller then is some of the kids. Back at the 5th. Wheel now and Iam so tired, It's almost day light now and I will sleep good today.
         See you later, your shirtless host Steve.

Day 13 Big Foot from Texas

Sasquatch Doug just stopped by to tell me where we will be going next. I am very surprised and hope that the road will not be to bad. Jim said that there is a camp site up there where we are going.  We are planning on leaving in about 2 hrs. I was told that it will be a slow trip and the roads are pretty good. We are going to be meeting a Clan that moved there from Texas. Jim and Doug are going up to help them mark out a small territory that is being set up for them. The area of land belongs to the Elk Bend Clan and they are letting them use it until they get settled. I ask if I needed to be blind folded again. Doug started laughing and said  " How are you going to drive "
 We just left the camp and are headed to the town of Beaver, Or. This is a small town off Hwy. 101.  We will be heading east out of Beaver on Blain Rd. This will become the upper Nestucca river Rd. or Nat'L forest road 85. We are driving along the Nestucca river and the road is very windy and not very wide. It's going to be a slow trip Iam following Jim's Monaco Motor Home. As we follow the river, the road became the BIM 32.  I thought that we were there when I saw the sign the sign that said Elk Bend Recreation site and Cover Camp grounds. But we drove right past them. I have no idea where we are going to end up. But we are going higher and deeper into the wilderness. Make me wonder were in the heck are we going to end up. Just passed N.W. Boundary Rd. now on N.W. Nestucca.access Rd. and as we passed Bald Mt. Rd. we made a hard left turn up a road with No. # and no name that I could see. The turn was about a mile before McGuire Reservoir. We followed this road all the way to the end and it was a rough road.
I saw two old school buses and a newer Motor Home in the trees. I almost missed them in the thick Grove of trees. The woods are so thick and I didn't see any one around.
Doug came over and told me to park over by the pea green pond. He wanted me to stay hooked up just in case we have to leave in a hurry. Sasquatch Doug and Big Foot Jim along with the rest of the group took off and asked me to stay by the motor homes.
They will see me to night.
