A listener writes “I was listening to episode 264 I believe, and there was a report from a guy by LaCrosse Wisconsin. It made me want to contact you with my experience, although it is pretty mundane.
I saw something in 2009 in northeast Iowa not too far from LaCrosse (about 45 minutes). My girlfriend and I were on our way to visit my parents. We were driving on some gravel backroads, and something ran across the road in front of our car. She wasn’t looking at the road so only I saw it, but I promise it was not something normal. It wasn’t really large, but it moved so smoothly, on two legs. My first thought was some sort of kid, not it was all black, hairy, and it’s hands were past it’s knees. It never looked at me but it was really quick, and moved so gracefully. I’m convinced it was either a Sasquatch or some sort of chimpanzee, but it was standing too straight for that. I stopped the car and was sorta in shock to be honest. I’ve never seen anything else after that, and it’s not a very exciting. But I have to believe I’m not the only one that’s seen something in this area.
Listening to your show makes me not feel so crazy, and makes me confident to share this with you.”

Can you disclose what county this was? I’m originally from Winneshiek county and feel like it should be a good area but have yet to hear or see anything.
