Project Blue Book Festival, Redmond

The Redmond Spokesman blog has an article (from their print edition, of course) about the Project Blue Book Festival coming up in Redmond this Saturday the 23rd—this the UFO festival I blogged about a few months back, I believe. I’m kind of surprised to see it happening. Based on what … Continue reading

Found image: Desert Dog Ale

Found this posted on the back door of the old roller rink, or Domino Room, or whatever they are these days: I never knew Bend Brewing made a Desert Dog Ale. Anyone know anything about it?

Hinky dealings at the Humane Society

The latest issue of The Source has a really good article on some of the sketchy dealings coming to light at the Humane Society here in Central Oregon. I think everyone should read it, even if you’re not an animal person; since the Humane Society is a non-profit, it’s our … Continue reading

The Cave House

The Bulletin today has an article about the "cave house" for sale in southeast Bend. I’d heard about this before; KTVZ did a story on it some time back, too. Basically, the house was built over a lava tube cave, and has a door that allows access into the cave … Continue reading

Redmond UFO convention

Who else saw the blurb in Saturday’s paper about Redmond’s UFO convention being planned for June? If the Redmond Historical Commission, The High Desert Society of the Arts and the Redmond Downtown Merchants have their druthers, airplanes won’t be the only craft descending upon Redmond come June. The groups are … Continue reading

Zydeco’s poor men’s room layout

Okay, I love Zydeco and all, I think it’s one of the best restaurants in town, but I have to say, they have possibly the worst men’s room layout of any place I’ve been. Why is that, you ask? Well, as you open the door, the first thing you see—as … Continue reading

More Bigfoot evidence

Brian points us to yet another mysterious Bend Bigfoot sighting here… although Bigfoot looks to be mugging for the camera a bit much… (Yeah, yeah, I’m about done with all of this.)

Bigfoot on Pilot Butte!

Following up on yesterday’s Bigfoot news, I thought I’d better share the photographic evidence I have of a Bigfoot on Pilot Butte. Look carefully:
