In the evergreen state of Washington, fondly called 'WA' by the locals, nestled between majestic mountains and sparkling waters, a group of intrepid young adventurers known as the 'WA Wildlings' embark on thrilling escapades. These pint-sized explorers, armed with their exploratory kits, turn the state's vast outdoors into a veritable playground. Leading the pack is their trusty guide, Bigfoot Benny, a whimsical creature with an uncanny sense of direction and a hilarious flair for storytelling. He's a bit peculiar, with feet the size of canoes and hair fluffier than a Douglas Fir! He can often be found leading the WA Wildlings on a merry chase across the lush evergreen forests, over the scenic mountain trails, and along the vibrant coastline. The kids of WA are a courageous bunch, with a thirst for adventure that can never be quenched. They are just as likely to be found examining a slug in the undergrowth with a magnifying glass as they are scaling the heights of Mt. Rainier. They revel in the constant drizzle, turning it into an opportunity to find the most extravagant rainbows. Under Bigfoot Benny's watchful eye, they learn to respect Mother Nature while exploring her many wonders. Laughter echoes through the trees as they engage in their favorite pastime - trying to outwit Benny in a hide-and-seek game. They joyfully refer it as 'Seek-the-Bigfoot'. And trust me, with feet as big as Benny's, he's not hard to find! Even if Benny always ends up found, the WA Wildlings never tire of their playful antics, exploring the beautiful state of Washington in their own special way.
