Day 57 Smith River clan

  Iam all hooked up and so is sasquatch Doug and Big Foot Jim. Emma said that they will be going to the Calif. Line.  We will be going to the Smith River Clan . They are along the Smith River just off Hwy 199 and just out side the town of Gasquest. We will be following Barry and his Mate Ashly and their twin babies Linda and  Renie.  We will follow them as far as the turn off at Hwy 199 off Hwy 101south. Then we will turn north into the Smith River Nat'l Rec. Area. Barry is over saying his goodbyes to his brother Larry and his Mate Mary and his sister Cindy from the Power House Clan. Along with her Mate Bruce and there two kids Pagie and Sue.  We should be leaving any time now. It is almost around 15 to 20 miles to Harbor. We will then turn South on HWY 101 to Calif.  Once we get to the turn off at Hwy 199 we are planning to stop.. Jim and Doug and say our goodbyes to Barry and his family. Barry will then keep going back up to Rattlesnake Mt. His Clan is up in the Siskiyou Wilderness.  This is part of the Klamath Nat'l Forest. Jim said that we will stop in see them again soon.
    Well we are on our way now heading out for a new adventure.  I called Jim to tell  me that he would like to stop at then McKay Rock State Rec. Site. This just before we get to the Calif. State line off Hwy 101. He thought it would be a good idea the kids could use a break by then.  Barry will most likely just keep on going. He wants to get back as soon as he can. It is raining so hard Emma did not want to stop. So we went straight to the turn off for Hwy. 199 east to Gasquest. Then we turned North to the Smith River Clans Territory.  What a beautiful spot to live in. They are so lucky to have this as there territory. We were met by the old Clan leader Art  and the new Clan leader Joe. They both showed us where to park our RVs . Then they all took off to their Safe Houses or Caves or nests where they live . See everyone tonight,

Day 56C. The rest of the story

Barry is going to tell everyone the story of the past . He told us that the Sasquatche Clans all got together about a month before the Eruption. They were planning an escape plan . They were in the Pinchot Nat'L Forest in Skamaina County. But the Eruption happened so fast that no Sasquatche or human had a chance. He told us all!! The night before the Eruption the Clans got together knowing that something was going to happen. They all thought that the safe houses would be ssve them. Will it did the opposite!! Everyone died in the house. They filled up with hot mud and water so fast they did not have a chance. He said that he looked for weeks for someone that might have made it ,. No luck!  He found his daughter right away , but his Mate and two son were never found.   Then one day he found a young man from the Goat Mt. Clan, under a tree half dead and covered in mud. That same day he found another boy from the Spirit Mt. Clan, which one day will become his daughter's Mate and our farther.  But back to the story after all that is way we are all here. After over a week of looking there was no sign of any other Sasquatchesat all. Clans came from all over too help look they came from as far away as northern Canada. Once they dacided that they would not find any Sasquatche alive they gave up. They knew knew that it would not do any good to keep looking . They slowly started to return to their own Clans and the hunt was over. Then our grandfather decided to move to Southern Oregon to start a new Clan. He never took a new mate but he raised the kids with alot of love. He found an old Blue Brid School Bus that still ran , packed it up and went south. The Clan had a hard time at frist but as time went on the Clan started to grow. . He was able to get 4new members, two pairs of Big Foots from  a nearby Clan. Then they started to grow fast. It became one of the largest Clan around. But but they never forgot the family members that died in the Mt. St. Helen Eruption. For years my grandfather would drive to Washington state on the anniversary day of the Eruption. On his passing he wanted his body taken back up to Mt. St. Helen and it was. We should always remember that 57 humans died that day also, but also remember that 80 Sasquatches died also. Then he said that we should pass it on to our kids so that we will never forget  them. 

   Then he closed by saying that he was happy to have the chance to tell the story of the MT. ST. HELEN ERUPTION, and the lost of both Humans and Sasquatches.

    Jim! got up on the stage along with Cindy, Barry, and Larry. They all thanked everyone for coming and have a good night and a safe trip back to their Clans. With day light approaching the Clans are ready to start back home..Barry is hoping that they will spread the story !!!
