When I was hitting Horton my mind was already deciding which direction I was headed when I came out of the cave. There were two choices, go back to where we had been dropped off and follow the road back to my vehicle or go deeper into the forest and get lost in there. Eventually I would work my way back to the hotel where my vehicle was parked and I could drive the baby bigfoot to Shasta. I know what you’re thinking. I could have made a fortune if I had taken them to a zoo. I’m not stupid. Of course I thought of that. In fact it was a struggle for me. I like to believe I am a man of principals and that I live my life by a standard. Which I suppose I do since in the end I didn’t give in to temptation but as I said I was tempted. The thing I believe you don’t understand, that you couldn’t understand, is the deep and strong amount of emotions which are being experienced by those in such dire circumstances. We were surrounded by fire, heat and death. Their mother had been basically cooked slowly while in the process of saving her children’s lives and the kids had to endure it all. next page | |
