Man tracks

What kind of beast made those tracks?!... I wondered as I looked at the line of tracks in my yard. Every morning there are different sets of tracks crossing my yard. Cat, dog, rabbit, bird,.. Oh,. wait a minute,. I made that one. I'd gone out to the car the other night and didn't bother to put my shoes on.

I'd blame the tracks on my ex-neighbor woman who I named Sasquatch Woman but she moved out long ago. I named her that because one night I came home in my car and caught her in the headlights and she looked just like a female bigfoot, her arms dragging with her ape like stride as she crossed the road. Only her cigarette betrayed her as a human, but I can understand why people think they've seen bigfoot.

LMAO!!

Maybe that's why some people smoke...

Nice solid footprint, though I think you're insane to go outside into snow barefoot like that. Although, if it was leading the way to an outdoor hot tub or hot spring, I sure as heck would be making tracks like that!

I love this photo though. It almost makes me want to say "let's all do this and compare"... ... almost.

It makes my foot look wider than it is. I think because the snow melted under my foot and then froze.

I wouldn't want to walk in snow barefoot. Don's a brave one!

Um,. I don't think brave is the right word..

Yes, lovely view to catch in one's headlights.

LG, I was going to say that my foot looks better than that track but in all honesty it doesn't...

QP, Yes I caught Sasquatch Woman roaming around in the dark. The females are mostly nocturnal and stay in the nest all day. Where's my 8mm camera when I need it?..
