In the first 70s, some of us were shot like personalities from our parents' homes. This is an take action of mother nature, bigger than ourselves. Inside the austere beauty and natural certainty of Hell's Canyon of Eastern Oregon, 100 mls from pavement, Pam, unable to identify with her parent's world and looking for deeper pathways has the opportunity encounter with returning Vietnam warrior Neglect Royes. Skip, buying a bridge from survival back to connection, introduces Pam to the vanishing culture of the wandering shepherd and collectively they embark on a four-year sojourn in to the wilderness. From the back of a horses, Pam leads her packstring of listeners from neglect to water crossing, down tracks 2,000 years of age, and from the vantages she chooses for all of us, we feel the edges of our very own experiences. It is a memoir of slipping deeply in love with a location and a guy and the price extracted to the love. Written with deep lyricism, Temperance Creek is a work of haunting beauty, fresh and irreverent and rooted in the grit and pleasure of daily life. That is Pam's story, but the courage and real truth in the telling is part of the real human experience. Seen by way of a slower more primary mirror, one not so congested with objectivity, Pam's memoir, is a kind of home-coming, a family group reunion for capturing stars.
