Account

While driving a heavy truck load on a two-lane highway toward Du Quoin in the early morning, the driver saw a tree rocking and then slamming across the road and breaking apart. No person or animal was seen moving it and no wind was noted. The driver interpreted it as possibly Bigfoot-related and linked to invisibility ideas.
