Erik,
As you may know, Oregon, like Vermont, is Bigfoot country. As soon as I read
your message, I headed for the forest to consult some of the Yeti-folk about
this phenomenon. After travelling many miles into the woods and speaking to
several sasquatches, I was finally able to confirm that, indeed, the recent
floods in your area caused a great deal of damage to some of the big guys'
caves. The very visible painted footprints you've seen are an attempt to
increase awareness of their plight, in hopes that curious humans will wander
into the woods carrying much-needed knapsacks of food and other supplies.
They suggested that a series of letterboxes with various sized footprint
stamps hidden in wooded areas might lure enough people into the territory of
the huge hairy humanoids to keep them supplied during this time of rebuilding.
"Be sure and hide the boxes far into the forest," one of the smelly feller's
recommended, "so people will be tempted to take picnic lunches with them."
Sincerely,
Mitch Klink (a.k.a. "Der Mad Stamper")
Portland, OR

I was wondering what happened to you. Whoa! You have a chummy relationship
with the big guys, huh?! Do you suppose they will sit down to a white table
cloth dinner and wear a tie?

Well, truth be known, I have size 14's. Yes, I do sit at a white table
from time to time. I can be very civilized.

Dan,
Well, I asked them... but they insisted that (1) There are no ties long
enough to go around their huge hairy necks, (2) They aren't very fond of
ties... too much like a leash, and (3) a white table cloth doesn't sound like
a very appetizing dinner entree.
They did offer to attend, however, if you should instead decide to serve
fresh-caught raw salmon and wild blackberries in the forest sometime. Ties
are out of the question, but they did mention that they would consider taking
a dip in the stream before dinner, to settle down the dust and fleas in their
fur... a pretty civilized offer, coming from a sasquatch.

My 14-year-old is in size 15's. Not very civilized at all. Maybe he's
lonesome for his kin--not many Sasquatches around Texas that I know of...
I love the footprint ideas--hey Sheila! Did you go check your box's
journal after Sylvia and I went and found it? (Footprints...)
