Emma and Joyce along with Ashley ( Barry's Mate ) are going to help Alexyss get settled in the Safe house.  Her and her Mate Weatherbee will be staying in for the winter.  The weather has been good and the full moon helps while while we work on finishing there shelter.  Jim and Doug are out helping Barry prepare the Elk he got along the side of the road for dinner.  Barry let us know that they will be having deer to night not the they got,, I wonder why?   Then he told me that there is more Deer hanging in the cave then Elk and so he wants to cook up some Deer meat.. I wonder how old the deer meat is and were they got it but I know that it doesn't matter to them how old it is.. The girls  are headed out to get some wild Veg. And herbs for dinner.
     Mira and Leroy are over by the Monaco Motor Home with Pagie and Olivia
I can see that they are all playing games over by the pond  next to the Motor Home now. Also the other kid in the Clan are all over the place playing games..
     The boys are over by the cave with the deer and it looks like it's time to start cooking..They are going the put it in a pit full of hot coals and cover it up and cook it all day.. Emma and the other girls are get back from the Veg. hunt..It looks like Alexyss is all moved in to the Safe house and it is all most time to get some rest before tonight.. So off to bed for me,,   Before I can go to bed Doug wants me to help with Deer. Then we all will go to bed and get some sleep.

Day 59 Rattlesnake surprise

  I can't understand why we are going to Rattlesnake Peak.  We just spent two days with Barry and his Mate Ashly.  So I will call Sasquatch Doug and asked why we are headed up to Rattlesnake Peak.   Doug said that there was a surprise
for Mira up at the Clan's territory so off to Rattlesnake Peak  we go..
We turned off US Route 199 out of Gasquest by Adams Station.  We ended up
Turning off and going on to 411 heading south to French Hill Rd. .. This is part of
411.. Then on to 17N41 south to Tyson mine Rd.muntil we hit Craig Creek.. We ran into a another Clans Territory at French Placer Canal off 411 ( add in Clan later ) then up to Rattlesnake Peak.  Jim said that we will all get together  later to night. so for now we should all get some rest..I asked what about the surprise for Mira.. He said that we will talk about it later, but for now we all need to get some great.
    It is dark and about 8 pm. Now and I just got up and everyone is out by the fire with Barry and Ashly. Mira and Pagie are each holding a baby. I am going to get something to eat and then head out side . I wonder what the big surprise is going to be  and if she has any idea it is coming. Heading out now and I can see Emma and Joyce over talking to a big foot from this Clan ( I think ) He has a big smile on his face.. I think that this might be the surprise for every one.
  Then I heard Mira give out a big scream and saw her running over to the guy.
Doug told me that it was Leroy,  the young man from the HadSalt Creek Clan that Mira likes. I can tell she likes him from her reaction to him.. She has started crying now it must be the joy of seeing him again.. Barry said that he is here on a work crew to help with the new territory that is going to be stacked out.. a the
territory is going to be on the south fork of the Smith River.. This part of the territory that will be called the Smith River Clan.
  The territory was given to a Big Foot for his service that he gave to Big Food's Clan. His name is Big Foot Weatherbee and his mate Alexyss and their  little girl Olivia.. He was B. F. Jim's family Sergeant of Arms for the past 5 years and now wants his own Clan.. Then they told me that Leroy ( Mira's boyfriend) will be part of the Smith River Clan.  He is moving here right after they get the territory  marked..   The new Clan will consist  of a group of BIG Foots from 15 different Clans in all ... Now I wonder if Mira is going to stay with him here or go back to My. Hood? But only time will tell..
    Weatherbee and Barry have been good friends for a long time. This is way he wanted his new Clan by the Rattlesnake Peak Clan. He will stay with Barry's Clan this winter and Start building a Safe house as soon as they can. Then he will move on to his own territory as soon as it is ready,,,,,

Day 58 fishing Smith River

    We are all up now. The former clan leader Art and his Mate Paula are out by the Monaco Motor Home.  Jim and Doug are out talking to them about road kill that they found. I was told that the Deer was hit last night sometime. Boy does that make me hungry!  ( Not  )
  Paula's kids are planning with Pagie and Mira, but I don't see Liberty.   Nettle is the new Clan leaders daughter  and she has been playing with Liberty. Emma and Joyce are over talking with LORA and Paulanow , about dinner tonight.
     Big Foot Jim and Art are good friends and Joe was his 2nd. In char for the past two years. I was told that the last 2nd. In charged was killed when a tree fell on him two years ago.  Art asked Joe to take over the Clan.  But first he asked his Clan members and the Clan and Joe got 100% of their support.
  We are all going to hike up to the old swimming hole Doug said.  The reason is because they use it now for a fishing hole. I asked how come they don't  have fishing poles. Art laughed and Jim got a big smile on his face, they have fish traps that they have made and placed in the river. When we got there one of the members jumped in to the water and pulled up a trap. The trap was full of fish boy this my kind of fishing. It looks easy then he jumped back in and pulled up the other trap .. just like the first one it was full of fish too.
        We are headed back now and we have to hike around some campers . The campers put up a campsite just out side of the Smith River Clan's territory.  Joe said that it is to close to their Safe House for him... He said tonight some time we will make a lot of noise,,,, Screaming,  Wails,  and Woops  along with some rock
Throwing,,, tent ,,, shaking to scare off the campers and hikers.
Jim has do one this lots over the years to get rid of unwanted campers and hikers.. Jim and Doug both ask me to stay in camp while they go off to scare off the campers. Joe wants to make sure that I Don't get hurt in case they have to get a way quick. He dose not think I can get up the hill fast enough. They're right I might be to slow . But it would have been fun to see what they do. They were gone about an hour or or.. You can hear what they were doing. They did it with-hurting any body.  They have never hurt a human ever..
   Now it is time for dinner and I was a little surprised that they were eating the fish raw. But they did cook the Deer over an open fire pit. They used all type of herbs from Australin boy dose it smell so good just like always. Iam headed over to my RV to get something to eat . I will come back out a little later when I see that they are done.   Raw Fish and road kill in not on my diet ever.. But they all seam to like it alot.
Emma called me to let know that we Amal are headed up to the Safe House .. They are going to have a new Clan leaders party. With Big Foot Wild Berrry Wine that Joe made up.. a
Jim wants to leave after the party  and head up to Rattlesnake Peak to see Barry and his Mate Ashley. He wants to stop by to thank them again for story time Doug wants to see the Redwoods and some of the Big Redwoods trees in the area.
   The Clan is on its way back now and it is almost day light. When

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 !!!

Day 56b story time

I am getting up now and I will head over to the camp fire. I do not  see the kids out running around . They must all be over by the fire. It is cold out side , so I am going to make sure that I dress warm. I don't know how long we will be out side tonight. They saved me a seat in front by the fire so I can keep warm.
     They cleared a large area around the fire for seating.  This is the first time seen this many Big Foots and Sasquatchs at one time in one place. I see Page^s mom and Dad over taking to Larry and his mate, Mary. Larry and Barry are Cindy's old twin brothers.
    Every one is showing up now and it is filling up fast. We should be starting any time now. I see Larry over talking to Big Foot Jim and Sasquatch  Doug by the stage. They helped build it just for tonight.
  Everyone is in their seats now and Jim is getting ready to talk to us all. He is telling everyone that there going to be a change in leader ship in one of the local Clans. Sasquatchs Art and Paula with their two kids Sue-Ann and Jo-Ann are moving back to the Olympic National Forest in Washington state. Their oldest daughter is going to mate up with a Sasquatchs in the Olympics National Park up there, Art and Paula wants to move closers to their Mom and Dad in the Mt. Carrie area in the park. So , as of tonight Big Foot Joe and his Mate will be the new Clan leader of the Smith River Clan . Everyone in the clan has heard about  the change and is over joyed. So we're letting all the other Clans in the area know. So everyone can aye a big Hi, to Joe and his mate Lora. They will be at the Clan leaders meeting later to night. So for now let's get to the story time, How about a big hand for Barry from the Rattlesnake  Clan.
    Barry said that the story that he is going to tell was passed down to him was from his grandfather.  This is about the great Eruption of 1980. My grandfather was onestablished of only 4 Sasquatchs to surficed the Mt. ST. Helena Eruption. The native American people called it the Smoking Mt. OR Louwala-Clough. There were 5 large Clans on the Mt. That were wiped out. The 5 Clans were the Goat Mt. Clan, St. Helena Clan,  Iron Creek Clan.  Spirit Lake Clan, and the Pole Patch Clan.  My grandfather and his daughter was from the Spirit Lake Clan and one from the St. Helena Clan and  and one from the Goat Mt. Clan survived the Eruption.   He took the other two in and raised them as his own. The reason that they were able to surfaced was because they were washed off to open side by the rushing water. But all the ones that made it to their safe houses died . The mud moved so fast down the North Face that all the Sasquatchs  died almost all at once and most of them died in their safe houses.
He brought himself and the three Kids to Southern Oregon  to start a new life. The news talked about the 57 humans that died that day but not about the 80 Sasquatchs  that died. But I know that there won't be a new Clan started up on Mt. Sthe. Helen for some time.
