Ever thought about exploring the beautiful Evergreen State of Washington? Famous as a Bigfoot Mecca, you’ll find not just dramatic scenery, but even more dramatic wildlife. It’s best to know before you go, as they say, and to be prepared. These all new stories (except one) will help you avoid any surprises, well, theoretically at least, for Bigfoot is always a surprise.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house - a farmer’s stone cottage - on “a small acre” of land. Mary assumed duties as the island’s district nurse.
