During the 1970s there was a series of apparent sightings of bigfoot in the Whitemarsh area northeast of Baltimore. These took place in the swamps around the Byrd River. Here are a few of those reports.

Richard and Elva Stewart were out cutting brush near a grove of trees when they heard breaking branches. As they stopped to listen, they grew aware of a 'swamp gas' like odor. That was when they saw the creature. It stood about 8 ft. tall and had big red eyes. When it saw them looking at him, it ran away.

Arches are a part of the highly discussed and highly controversial subject of structures and what they are and what they mean in the never-ending debate over bigfoot.

Through the ages mankind has found ways to make arches -- incorporating them into buildings, walls, roads, bridges, aqueducts, etc.  And we love arches. We see the beauty of them along with their practicality in a building.

We admire arches made by nature, the stone and rock formations, the plants, and the trees.

And we adore the arches allegedly made by Bigfoot while we ponder what they mean.

Day of Random Thoughts. Today. DOGMAN. What is it? Or is it?

Suddenly it seems lately that you can't go on the internet or check your emails or messages or group posts without seeing something about Dogman. Heck, it's even on the news. Haven't done much in-depth research into the subject. I've read some encounters, read a few articles, and been sent a few photos. Some of it looks hokey, some downright spooky, and some quite compelling. So, how does it connect to the whole Bigfoot picture?
