I thought to myself that it was odd to see a large pile of soggy grass and moss that was oddly shaped so symmetrically. Then I saw that it was a creature standing trying not to be seen and as still as can be. I couldn't speak, I couldn't process what I was seeing and then the words left my mouth... 'Honey' I said to my husband, 'I just saw a Sasquatch by the side of the road crouching down'. He could tell by the look on my face that I had, in fact, seen something. I still can't believe it, I'm chuckling nervously talking about it... unbelievable. It was a dark mound of crouched flesh and soggy hair.
