I actually just returned from celebrating the 1st Wedding Anniversary of two great friends, Bart & Kim Cutino. It was an amazing reception in Carmel Valley and they've got a beautiful little girl, aptly named Bella. Friends and family were in attendance and the bigfoot friends were well represented. Many of my photos are at Bart's facebook page. Enjoy if you're on facebook. Some will appear here in a bit.

David Paulides, full-time bigfoot researcher and author, will present his latest findings. (promo photo not available. See slideshow below for Dave's picture.)





Bill Munns, the man who has all but explained the authenticity of the Patterson-Gimlin film, will present his findings. Yeah, all right, he's only saying it ISN'T a guy in a suit.






Sure, most of us knew that but Bill will tell you why ...if you're still on the fence for some reason (like you haven't read up on the film event.) 'cause if you had, you'd know about the arms beings too long (the Intermembral Index) and the details in the film like muscles flexing and a leg hernia bulging...etc.


5 weeks from yesterday... Buy a ticket - Book a room - Don't Miss Bigfoot Discovery Day III.

recapping the Summer of 2009

June 2009 The Goat Family Band at Zeitgeist's in San Francisco's Mission District.
A night of music, beer and tamales to celebrate a milestone birthday of Virginia (the Tamale Lady). Our good friend and film-maker Cecil B. Feeder was the drummer and master-of-ceremonies for the night. Sure was the best Monday of summer, hands down!

Summertime Blues - It Went By Too Fast!

all right!! family, friends and interested strangers have been on my case to blog
more often, so let's start a series of summer highlight blogs.

Summer seemed to come early after the rollicking good time we had at the Yakima Bigfoot Round-Up. So much pertinent and current information was disseminated at that event that we're still trying to summarize it in print - and on a DVD. Look for more news about that in late October.

June 2009 - Bella Cutino's first public bigfoot appearance
The Bigfoot Discovery Museum hosted an event in June. The highlight of the day was a personal appearance of beautiful little Bella Cutino! I couldn't quite get her to smile but Bart's got some photos on his facebook page that do her justice. She was a trooper hanging out that hot day with Mommy at Daddy's bigfoot event.

Also, saw many friends and colleagues at the museum that day.

that's it for now! Heading to the Redwoods for some research and relaxation tomorrow... see you here next week!
