Downton Abbey on DirecTV

Right now most women are obsessed with the PBS show "Downton Abbey."  If you have DirecTV you may think that you can't watch it because it doesn't come up when you search the words "Downton Abbey" in the menu.

It is labeled under "Masterpiece Classic" - so you have to search for that to see it.
 For a show so popular you would think they would fix that. PBS must stand for "Poor Broadcasting Skills", either that or "Penis Breath Sandwich"

Your welcome lonely girl.

49ers are Kicking Ass!

I was going to bombard this blog with more pictures of my trip up north and a bunch of photos from my 2 latest trips to San Francisco,  but my friend Ryan from Wisconsin said "you sure put a lot of pictures on your blog", so now I'm self conscience and have to pull the reigns in on my posts!  Maybe I shouldn't listen to him, this is the same guy that just sent me 5 burnt CD's of the band "Chickenfoot" to listen to so his taste is suspect!

Winter Trip - Part 4 - Willow Creek - Day 2

The next morning in Willow Creek, I was excited to get up and start checking out all the sights.
I had spent some of the night doing surveillance out of my cabin window watching the deer grazing outside, hoping they would lure a Sasquatch in.

The town is about a mile wide, from east to west. It basically has a gas station, a few restaurants and 4 Bigfoot statues. They're isnt that many people, but everyone is very cool and they don't have the "Murderous Back-Woods vibe" that you would expect in a town that is so isolated.
Very Squatchy, even in the daytime.
For breakfast, we went to the "Bigfoot Restaurant" which was formerly called, "Cinnabar Sams".

The "Hooters" of Bigfooters"

I'll have the Sasquatch Schlong with no Onions, and a side of Yeti pubes.
Outside of the restaurant across the street is the famous "Bigfoot Mural" on the side of the Ace Hardware.  It's about 60 yards long and show's Bigfoot working alongside the community, like he is the Jimmy Carter of Willow Creek!

Famous in my mind at least.
"Where's Bigfoot?"  "He's on Break"
In front of Ace Hardware they have another statue. This one is an oversized version of the one you see in the "SkyMall" ads on airplanes.

This one has more of a "Cowardly Lion" hairdo.
Next up is the world famous "Bigfoot Museum."  This is the museum you see in all of the Bigfoot Books and TV Specials.  The Smithsonian of Sasquatch History and research. 
The museum had been closed for the off season since September, but they opened it for us.
Local Outdoorsman Ed Duggan who writes the Trinity River fishing report was nice enough to give us a tour

Bigfoot looks like he has some sort of "Bird Suit" on

Check out my new boots from "Ross!"




My long lost son. Some sort of .. "Turd Boy"

I had a special bond with this baby sized Squatch", he was my favorite.

Nice touch with the Butterfly.




Who the hell is painting portraits of Bigfoot!!?


This one says "Nike" on the bottom.

Somebody stole the Bigfoot "PlayGirl."

Willow Creek was basically built by the Chinese and used to be called "China Flat"


Bigfoot Burger was closed for the season.


One of the most famous Bigfoot statues in the World... probably.


It's been around for a while. 





On a serious note, this town is AWESOME. The people are super friendly and there is a great "Bigfoot Vibe" in the air. If your into this stuff, you should definitely go visit.  As much as a global phenomenon that Bigfoot is, the town is very low-key. I really think that people should donate money to the Bigfoot Museum so they can get some TV's in there and some updated exhibits.
 Whether you believe in it or not, there is no doubt that Bigfoot is a extremely interesting part of American History, and it should be preserved and showcased well.

 Here is a link where you can donate.

Also, if your heading to Willow Creek,  I recommend staying at the CoHo Cottages,  for a very reasonable rate you can get a great room with a super friendly staff.
Tell them we sent ya!

Here is a link to the CoHo Cottages website.

Next up, we head south to San Francisco for the Niners game at Candlestick Park.

Winter Trip - Part 3 - Willow Creek (Day 1)

We arrived in Willow Creek around 6:45pm. It was already dark out because of some science thing with the Earth and the Sun.  But here is where it gets interesting......

When I saw the sign for "Willow Creek" I had to stop and get a picture. The sign is just on the outskirts of the small town.  So there are a few house's around but like 1 every mile or so.
When I got out of the car to take the picture, I could hear a bunch of dogs barking, which sounded about 150 yards away.

"No big deal,  I just wanted to get my picture and get back in the car"

Then, in the middle of the barking, came a clear distinct, "whoop" noise came from the woods.
The same type of "whooping" noise that has been recorded of sasquatch.
Sarah said,  "Did you hear that "whoop?" I said "Yeah", but it seemed all too convenient that we just happened to hear that right when we rolled into Willow Creek.
We don't know for sure what the noise was, but since we were in a "Bigfoot State of Mind" and those dogs were going nuts, I'm gonna chalk it up to being a "Sasquatch whoop"

Here is a link to where you can hear the type of noise I'm talking about,  It sounded exactly like this. Very clear and concise.

Anyways, the visit was already off to a great start.  So lets check out some pictures from the first night in Willow Creek,  The Bigfoot capital of the world!

Paradise City

The town is nestled deep within the mountains off the Trinity River in Humbolt County, CA.
But enough of that Geography talk, lets see some Bigfoot stuff.


The town looks fucking cool at night.

Below is a picture of the world famous Bigfoot Motel,
This is where Patterson and Gimlin stayed before capturing it on film that day in 1967
 They were broke so they probably had to share a bed.
Back then it was called "Motel"
Behind the Motel they have a huge Bigfoot cage for people like me to play in.
It's beats a pool and a continental breakfast any day!
Apparently they built this back in the day to catch Sasquatches but stopped using it.

Trapped!
We walked up past the hotel and ran into a local Indian Guy. We asked him if he had any encounters with Bigfoot and he said that Bigfoot is a spiritual creature and people who seek it have problems.
Well.... that was awkward!   Moving on!

The first statue we saw in town.

It was getting late and we had more sights to see the next day. So it was time to settle into my shelter that I made out of a few sticks and some long grass.  It turned out pretty well!

Time for bed!

up next .. more Willow Creek,  Day 2

Winter Trip - Part 2 - Bigfoot Country

We left Portland the morning of Friday 12/28.  Taking the 5 freeway down through Oregon to Northern California, heading west on Hwy 96 down the "Bigfoot Scenic Byway" which ends in the town of Willow Creek. Its about a 6 hour drive through mountainous, snowy terrain and you can go like 2 hours without services.  It's not exactly the best drive for someone in a rental car who has never driven in the Pacific Northwest.  But Fuck it, you only live once right!

The first stop was in Eugene, Oregon. Just outside of Eugene is a place called "Ike's Pizza" where they have the famous "Bigfoot & Beer" meetings where people get together and tell their Sasquatch encounter stories. But since it's like 25 minutes outside town we didn't get a chance to stop. But I wanted to make a note of it in case some extreme Bigfoot fan reads this and accuses me of not knowing my shit!  So back off! ... now, back to the boring photos.

Eugene is the home of the Oregon Ducks.

Out in front they some giant X and O monuments like some sort of football playbook.

Joey Harrington is hanging out here somewhere.


When you get to the bottom of Oregon you hit Ashland, which is known for their annual Shakespeare festival.  Time for a bathroom break.
To pee, or not to pee.
Once you get out of Ashland the drive get's a little more serious.
The snow came as we headed to the mountains.

Next Exit, 300 miles.
"Can you check the glove box for some snow chains?"
We got off the 5 freeway and entered Highway 96 which will lead you into the middle of Northern California.  This stretch of freeway is not advised during this time of year.

Which one has a "Denny's?"

When you enter the forest it gets hardcore real fast.

I took this photo looking back, as we were entering.
Good thing I'm dressed for this.
Bigfoot Country
HAPPY CAMP
The first town associated with Bigfoot is Happy Camp, CA. As soon as you get there you can't miss the giant Bigfoot statue that welcomes you to town.  This is something I've seen for years in all the books and websites. It was super exciting.

Please don't shit on my head.
A map to heaven.



BLUFF CREEK
Its about 90 miles between Happy Camp and Willow Creek. But it takes like 2 hours because of all the twists and turns, you can only go like 40 miles an hour at the most. About 30 miles away from Willow Creek is Bluff Creek. It's the site of the famous "Patterson Gimlin Film" from 1967, which is the film that is what usually inspires people to become interested in Bigfoot in the first place. The actual film site is way up in the mountain and not accessible in the Winter, but it was still cool to be nearby, knowing all of the history to this world famous location.


up next ......  we arrive in Willow Creek!
