Bigfoot's Bizarre Cousin Sighted in Michigan
Nain Rouge - a Personal Account and Historical Records
by David Claerr
Early on a mid-summer morning, the air fragrant with the scent of lush greenery and flowers, my brother and I were at the edge of a large, uncultivated field covered in thick overgrowth. In front of us was a stand of tall reed-like pigweed that grew up to seven feet high. The rough, pithy stems of the plants grew very close together, not more than two or three inches apart, and formed a dense thicket that stretched for perhaps a quarter-mile ahead of us. There were only a few trails through the thicket leading to the wood-lined meadowlands beyond.
We stood on a mowed clearing that served as a fire-break between the overgrown field and the housing tract where we lived. As we were about to head for one of the trails, we heard something or someone forcing its way through the thicket, smashing through the pigweed. It was making guttural noises almost as if muttering under its breath, disgruntled from having to force its way through the raspy barrier of stems. In fact, I mentally pictured an old farmhand in overalls tramping through the overgrowth. We paused because it seemed to be headed directly towards us.
It was thrashing the weeds vigorously, snapping the pithy stems and stomping the ground as it thrust its way forward. We instinctively froze in our tracks.
Suddenly it reached the abrupt end of the thicket, and stopped in surprise at the clearing which it didn't see until the very last moment. We were directly in its path.

Boa Constrictor: Not an Enthusiastic Camping Buddy
ADDISON TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- A man has discovered that a boa constrictoris not a willing camping companion after his 5-foot-long pet escapedas they vacationed in southeast Michigan.
The man alerted officials that the snake slithered out of his pop-up camper June 9 at Addison Oaks County Park.
Oakland County Parks and Recreation executive officer Dan Stenciltells the Oakland Press of Pontiac that the snake is young and doesn't pose a threat to humans - "just small animals and so on."
Stencil says the man has been cited for violating park rules.
Stencil says the snake might have slithered into a crevice in the camper, but that herpetologists are scouring the 1,140-acre park 30miles north of Detroit in hopes of finding it before crowds descend for a fireworks display July 1.
