Step back into a powerful moment of history in this reading of **Chapter 2: *The Silent Observers*** from *The Wind at Major Creek*.
In this chapter, the quiet rhythms of life along the Columbia are suddenly interrupted. Through the eyes of Tamsky and his young son, we witness the first unsettling encounter with strangers who do not see the land as a living gift—but as something to measure, claim, and use.
This is more than a meeting of people—it is a collision of worlds. One shaped by reverence, memory, and spirit… the other driven by maps, tools, and ambition. As the balance begins to shift, the question lingers: what is lost when a sacred place becomes a pathway?
Listen closely. The river still speaks.
