Hello all,
I've had a couple of requests to repost this, but I lost the
original, so I've been hesitant to retype the whole thing.
Well, I have the time to type today, so here goes...
It was a summer night, and some friends of mine and I were goofing
off in Santa Fe, NM. Well, we had a blast until about 3:00 am, and
then decided it was time to go home. Needless to say, I was tired
and my friend in the passenger side fell asleep once I started
driving home (about 25 mi. away).
I was about 10 miles north of Santa Fe when a weird feeling came over
me. I looked off to the right and saw a white ape running beside
my car. Well, when I'm really tired I have a tendancy to hallucinate,
so I wasn't too worried when I saw the ape. After a few seconds,
though, I realized that it wasn't a hallucination, so I woke up my
friend and had him take a look. He freaked out, just as I did. At
about that time the ape turned and looked at us. The ape's eyes
were an orange-red that seemed to glow as if there was a fire behind
them. It kept up with us for a little while longer and then turned
off and ran into the mountains. When I finally looked at my speed-
ometer, I was going about 60 mph. More than likely, I was going
slower when the ape was running with us, so I figured it was running
about 50 mph.
I've gotten a few e-mail responses to the original post, and the
major consensus was that I saw a bigfoot. If anyone else has any
comments or questions, I'd love to hear them.
See ya!
