1 00:01:05 There were once passageways to the old world,
2 00:01:09 strange trails, hidden paths.
3 00:01:13 You'd turn a corner and suddenly find yourself face-to-face
4 00:01:16 with the great mystery,the foundation of all things.
5 00:01:23 And even though that old world is gone now,
6 00:01:26 even though it's been rolled up like a scroll and put somewhere,
7 00:01:31 you can still feel the echo of it.
8 00:01:47 We're clear.
9 00:02:02 His name was Robert Grainier,
10 00:02:06 and he lived more than 80 years
11 00:02:07 in and around the town of Bonners Ferry, Idaho.
12 00:02:12 In his time, he traveled west within a few dozen miles of the Pacific,
13 00:02:17 though he'd never seen the ocean itself,
14 00:02:19 and as far east as the town of Libby,40 miles inside Montana.
15 00:02:28 When he was sent by himself to the town of Fry, Idaho,
16 00:02:31 he was six, or possibly seven.
17 00:02:35 He never knew for sure the year or day of his birth.
18 00:02:44 How he had lost his original parents,
19 00:02:47 nobody ever told him.
20 00:02:51 One of his earliest memories was that of observing the mass deportation
21 00:02:55 of 100 or more Chinese families from the town.
22 00:03:00 Grainier was baffledby the casualness of the violence.
23 00:03:05 Come on up here.
24 00:03:07 Please, young fella.
25 00:03:09 I've been cut behind the kneeby this fella they call Big-Ear Al.
26 00:03:15 And I have to say,I... I know he's killed me.
27 00:03:18 There were other memoriesthat he pushed from his mind
28 00:03:21 any time they arose.
29 00:03:26 He quit attending schoolin his early teens,
30 00:03:29 and the next two decades passedwithout much direction or purpose.
31 00:03:34 He felt that nothing muchattracted his interest
32 00:03:38 until, that is, he met Gladys Olding.
33 00:03:50 Gladys introduced herself
34 00:03:52 as if women did thingslike that every day.
35 00:03:54 Hello.
36 00:03:55 And maybe they did.
37 00:03:56 Hello.
38 00:03:58 I, uh...
39 00:03:59 I... I haven't seen you here before.
40 00:04:01 Oh, no, I've never, um... Uh...
41 00:04:04 - First time?- My-- My cousin, yeah, brought me.
42 00:04:07 Well, his wife is very much--
43 00:04:10 I'm... I'm Robert.
44 00:04:12 I'm... I'm Gladys.
45 00:04:15 - Nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you.
46 00:04:22 He found he suddenlyhad more interest in church
47 00:04:25 than he ever had before.
48 00:04:27 ...fail youHe promised
49 00:04:31 Believe Him, and all will be well
50 00:04:35 Not three months later,they were inseparable.
51 00:04:39 Right now, I couldjust about understand everything there is.
52 00:04:51 What are you thinking about?
53 00:04:58 Well...
54 00:05:04 I was thinkingthat we ought to get married.
55 00:05:10 What?
56 00:05:15 We are married.
57 00:05:20 All we need now is a ceremony to prove it.
58 00:05:35 And our cabin should have a windowlooking out towards the river.
59 00:05:41 Okay.
60 00:05:42 - We'll need a dog.- Mmm.
61 00:05:46 - I always wanted a dog.- Mmm.
62 00:05:48 Okay.
63 00:05:49 Open the door. Come on.
64 00:05:51 Okay.
65 00:05:55 - Hello. Come in.- What an amazing house you have here.
66 00:05:58 Can I come in?
67 00:05:59 Look at this place.
68 00:06:03 - We'll have the bed right here.- Facing here. And...
69 00:06:06 - Window?- Yeah, here.
70 00:06:10 Another here.
71 00:06:11 I want you to say my name one more time.
72 00:06:14 I just love it when it comes from you.
73 00:06:19 The sound of it.
74 00:06:26 Robert.
75 00:06:30 All of a sudden,life made sense to Grainier,
76 00:06:34 as if he'd been pulling hard the wrong way
77 00:06:37 and was now turned aroundand headed downstream.
78 00:06:43 The couple built a cabinon an acre of land,
79 00:06:45 and there, alongside the Moyie River,
80 00:06:49 began a little life together.
81 00:06:57 In those years,Grainier's work took him far from home.
82 00:07:02 He worked alongside menwho came from faraway lands
83 00:07:05 he'd never even heard of,
84 00:07:07 places like Shanghai and Chattanooga.
85 00:07:13 It was a comfort to him how easilythey all fell in with each other,
86 00:07:16 became temporary families.
87 00:07:21 But then, in the summer of 1917,
88 00:07:24 he worked a job buildingthe Robinson Gorge Bridge
89 00:07:27 for the Spokane International Railroad.
90 00:07:30 He'd never taken upwith a railroad crew before,
91 00:07:34 and he wished he'd never had.
92 00:07:38 All right, boys, he's right over here.
93 00:07:41 - That young boy working on that beam.- There he is.
94 00:07:45 Go on. Get him.
95 00:07:47 Bring him on up here.
96 00:07:48 Hey, come on.
97 00:07:52 Bring him on up.
98 00:07:54 What'd he... What'd he do?
99 00:07:56 Come on up. Come on up.
100 00:08:00 - Hold on.- Hey, you.
101 00:08:02 Yeah, but wha... what's he done?
102 00:08:03 Hey!
103 00:08:06 One, two...
104 00:08:09 Get him up here! That's it.
105 00:08:11 Bring him up. Take him on out.
106 00:08:17 What'd he actually do?
107 00:08:18 I don't even know.
108 00:08:20 What? Hey.
109 00:09:21 - Holy...- Yo, what is he doing?
110 00:09:25 You boys have shownthis old river valley who's boss.
111 00:09:28 You helped save Spokane International.
112 00:09:31 Eleven miles it used to taketo get around this gorge.
113 00:09:34 And you opened upa new part of the country.
114 00:09:38 I know it ain'tthe Great Pyramids of Egypt,
115 00:09:40 but I think you boys have done somethingpretty darn incredible.
116 00:09:47 Many years later,a bridge made of concrete and steel
117 00:09:50 would be built ten miles upstream,
118 00:09:53 rendering this one obsolete.
119 00:10:05 Now,
120 00:10:07 let's see if she holds.
121 00:10:30 Whoo!
122 00:12:09 I missed you.
123 00:12:12 Hello.
124 00:12:16 Oh, Gladys.
125 00:12:21 - Oh God.- God, yes.
126 00:12:23 Oh, shh. Shh.
127 00:12:26 I just got her to sleep.
128 00:12:29 Is she...
129 00:12:31 Go see her.
130 00:12:35 - She's just gotten so big.- Mmm.
131 00:12:39 She's starting to look like you.
132 00:12:41 Mmm.
133 00:12:42 At least she's startingto favor one of us.
134 00:12:50 No broken fingers this time?
135 00:12:53 I don't think so.
136 00:12:55 I didn't think you'd be home this soon.
137 00:12:57 I just couldn't stop walkinguntil I got here.
138 00:13:06 - Look at that.- Oh.
139 00:13:11 I didn't expect that muchafter what you already sent.
140 00:13:14 We hit a soft stand at the end there.
141 00:13:23 Whoa, whoa.
142 00:13:34 Let's have a big dinner tonight.
143 00:13:36 Well, don't go to too much trouble.
144 00:13:48 No, come on. Let me show you something.
145 00:14:00 You see any of the same old guys?
146 00:14:02 Yeah. I saw a couple from the Oregon job.
147 00:14:05 They got good stories?
148 00:14:08 Yeah. They got good stories,whether any of them are true or not.
149 00:14:18 She's watching the candle. Look.
150 00:14:21 Look at that. Can you see?
151 00:14:25 Isn't that nice?
152 00:14:27 Hey, honey.
153 00:14:29 Yeah.
154 00:14:35 Mmm.
155 00:14:37 You want me to feed you?
156 00:14:39 Hmm?
157 00:14:40 - Give me some of that chicken.- Mmm...
158 00:14:42 Mmm...
159 00:14:49 - Oh, come on.- Mmm.
160 00:14:53 - She need to sleep?- Yeah.
161 00:15:02 Oh.
162 00:15:04 Yes.
163 00:15:18 What do you think?
164 00:15:23 It's a pretty funny-looking bassinet.
165 00:15:28 It's a fish trap.
166 00:15:32 Oh.
167 00:15:33 Bassinet.
168 00:16:29 Uh...
169 00:16:33 Did she, uh, wake up?
170 00:16:39 Was she crying?
171 00:16:41 Not too bad.
172 00:16:44 She just woke up hungry.
173 00:16:46 Mmm.
174 00:16:50 Do you know what all her cries mean?
175 00:16:54 Most of them, I guess.
176 00:16:58 How much does she know, do you think?
177 00:17:02 I don't know.
178 00:17:03 Hmm.
179 00:17:05 As much as a dog pup?
180 00:17:10 Well, a dog pup can live on its ownafter its mama weans it away.
181 00:17:16 A baby couldn't just go off and liveafter it was weaned.
182 00:17:21 A dog knows more than a babytill the baby knows its words,
183 00:17:25 and not just a few words.
184 00:17:28 A dog raised around the houseknows some words too...
185 00:17:31 ...as many as a baby at least.
186 00:17:35 What words?
187 00:17:38 I just want to hear your voice.
188 00:17:43 Well, fetch
189 00:17:45 and come.
190 00:17:50 Lay and sit
191 00:17:54 and roll over.
192 00:17:58 Whatever it knows to do,it knows the words.
193 00:18:05 Do you think that she knowsthat I'm her daddy?
194 00:18:10 Of course she does.
195 00:18:13 Deep down, she knows it...
196 00:18:17 even if she doesn't know she knows it yet.
197 00:18:25 Don't worry.
198 00:18:28 You'll have plenty of timeto be her daddy.
199 00:18:59 Nice having you home.
200 00:19:01 Hmm.
201 00:19:04 - I don't want you to disappear.- Mmm.
202 00:19:11 There you go.
203 00:19:13 Yeah.
204 00:19:16 - No. Don't eat it.- Does it smell nice?
205 00:19:20 Sorry. Just one more minute.
206 00:19:28 Should I put my hand in my pocket?
207 00:19:31 What do you think?
208 00:19:34 Oop.
209 00:19:43 It seemed that as soon asGrainier felt used to being at home,
210 00:19:46 logging season would come back around,and it was time to leave again.
211 00:19:57 His work was populated with itinerant men,
212 00:20:00 most without homes, without families.
213 00:20:04 They moved from job to job,state to state, as the work dictated.
214 00:20:11 And though little notewas made of them in this world,
215 00:20:14 they left a lasting impressionon Grainier.
216 00:20:23 He once worked alongside a mantwo full months
217 00:20:26 without exchanging a single word.
218 00:20:31 So I said, "Buddy,I wasn't looking for that kind of gold."
219 00:20:37 What about you, mister?You ever been down to California?
220 00:20:44 Ain't there any place in this worlda man can get some peace?
221 00:20:50 Those were the only wordsGrainier ever heard the man say.
222 00:20:54 They remained with him always.
223 00:20:57 Another was Hank Healy,who made his home in the trunk of a tree.
224 00:21:02 And it comforts me,you get what I'm saying?
225 00:21:05 I got a problem...
226 00:21:06 There was Apostle Frank,
227 00:21:08 a faller who spoke about the Biblewith such familiarity
228 00:21:11 as to suggest he'd been therewhen it was all written down.
229 00:21:15 It's like that old boy Balaamin the Bible.
230 00:21:18 Sometimes God has to find strange waysto tell you what you need to hear.
231 00:21:22 Sometimes it's a donkey talking to you,sometimes it's a who knows.
232 00:21:26 I was in Nebraska once.
233 00:21:27 The Lord spoke to my heart,told me to go to Omaha.
234 00:21:30 When I got off the train,the sign said "Opelika."
235 00:21:33 I said, "Opelika?"
236 00:21:35 And that's when I knewmy eyes were busted.
237 00:21:38 Praise God and hallelujah.
238 00:21:41 I think that's it.
239 00:21:43 - You get what I'm saying in general?- Mm-hmm.
240 00:21:45 So he touched his hip, God did.
241 00:21:47 And for the rest of Jacob's life,he walked with a bad limp.
242 00:21:50 See, Jacob was an all-rounder.
243 00:21:52 Handled his affairswith no help from nobody.
244 00:21:55 But in the end, that's not what the...
245 00:21:57 Who's that?
246 00:22:00 Excuse me, gentlemen.I'm sorry to interrupt you.
247 00:22:03 Is one among you called Sam Lovingfrom New Mexico?
248 00:22:08 Alternatively known as, um...
249 00:22:11 ...Buckskin Sam
250 00:22:13 in southern Arizonaand parts of California.
251 00:22:16 I've been trying to find this manfor a very long time
252 00:22:19 to deliver a message to him.
253 00:22:30 - Oh.- Oh, shoot.
254 00:22:42 Jeez! Come on.
255 00:22:44 Goodness.
256 00:22:45 The hell?
257 00:22:51 That man shot my brother,
258 00:22:54 Martin Brown, in cold bloodin Gallup, New Mexico,
259 00:22:57 August 5th, '93.
260 00:23:00 He killed himonly because of the color of his skin.
261 00:23:04 If any of you take offenseto what I've just done here,
262 00:23:07 let's have it outbefore I leave this place.
263 00:23:10 I do not intend to spend the restof my days looking over my shoulder.
264 00:23:19 Very good, then.
265 00:23:23 I'm sorry to have interrupted your work.
266 00:23:29 Big trees.Never knew trees could get this big.
267 00:23:37 At the heart of the cutwas a man named Arn Peeples,
268 00:23:40 a gadabout of unknown origin
269 00:23:42 whose real usewas occasional but specific.
270 00:24:10 You Minnesota boysmight want to close your ears.
271 00:24:27 - Uh, kaboom.- Told y'all it wouldn't work.
272 00:24:43 - Don't touch that.- Yeah. We won't.
273 00:24:45 - Don't even look at it crossways.- Not even looking.
274 00:24:54 He was the oldest man on most jobs,
275 00:24:56 always yammering,staying out of the way of hard work.
276 00:25:00 You let me at that hatchetif you boys need a break.
277 00:25:04 I get to chopping,you come to work in the morning,
278 00:25:06 the chips won't yet be settledfrom yesterday.
279 00:25:09 I'm made for this summer logging.
280 00:25:12 I don't get my gears turning smoothtill it's over 100.
281 00:25:16 That's good.
282 00:25:21 All this over a little rain.
283 00:25:25 In my day,we worked around the whole clock,
284 00:25:27 not just when it suited you.
285 00:25:31 Back then,we'd riddle a bole with auger holes.
286 00:25:35 Sometimes we had to wait a weekfor a good wind to topple them behemoths.
287 00:25:39 And then they all cametumbling down at once.
288 00:25:44 Trees twice as bigas any you're cutting around here.
289 00:25:47 I worked on a peakoutside of Bisbee, Arizona,
290 00:25:49 where we was only 11, 12 milesfrom the sun.
291 00:25:53 A hundred and sixteen degreeson the thermometer.
292 00:25:56 And every degree was a foot long.
293 00:26:00 And that was in the shade.
294 00:26:03 And there weren't no shade.
295 00:26:06 He's coming up. Here he comes.
296 00:26:21 Oh!
297 00:26:27 Whoo!
298 00:26:29 If the Lord was a redwood
299 00:26:33 Would you try to cut Him down?
300 00:26:38 Or climb up His loving branchesAnd look around?
301 00:26:45 If the river was the tearsOf those who have passed...
302 00:26:49 Quit your singing!I'm trying to sleep over here.
303 00:26:52 - Arn, go to bed.- Stop singing!
304 00:26:54 Hey, Arn.
305 00:26:55 I won't... I won't sing no more.
306 00:26:58 No, no, no.
307 00:27:01 You told Adrienthat these tents are from the Civil War?
308 00:27:05 That's right. Union infantry.
309 00:27:09 After that, they went to the US Cavalryfor the Indian campaigns.
310 00:27:14 These old things have served longerthan the people they sheltered.
311 00:27:19 Rough canvas, but they'll probably be herelong after we're gone.
312 00:27:23 Hmm.
313 00:27:26 What's keeping you awake over there?
314 00:27:29 Oh, uh...
315 00:27:33 Arn, do you... do you think that...
316 00:27:37 the bad thingsthat we do follow us through life?
317 00:27:41 I don't know.
318 00:27:44 I've seen bad men raised upand good men brought to their knees.
319 00:27:49 I reckon if I could figure it out,
320 00:27:51 I'd be sleeping next to someonea lot better-looking than you.
321 00:28:02 What was that song that you were singing?
322 00:28:04 Uh, it... it don't have a name.It just come to me.
323 00:28:10 Why don't you sing a little more?
324 00:28:12 No, no. I... I don't want to upsetthe Minnesota boys.
325 00:28:17 Well, wait a minute. I...
326 00:28:23 Here.
327 00:28:45 The crews began to movedeeper into the forest with each job.
328 00:28:50 There seemed to be no endto the world's appetite for lumber.
329 00:28:54 So they workedfrom sunrise until suppertime,
330 00:28:57 felling spruce, cedar, and tamarack,Doug fir, and white pine,
331 00:29:02 utterly changing the faceof the mountainside in the process.
332 00:29:07 And while a good sawyer might correctlyjudge 99 times how a fall would go,
333 00:29:14 the hundredth time might take its toll.
334 00:29:18 Tree! Hey!
335 00:29:20 - Help! Help!- Look out!
336 00:29:22 Help!
337 00:29:23 - Get help!- Help!
338 00:29:25 Help!
339 00:29:33 There.
340 00:29:35 Now they won't just pass out of this worldwithout nothing to show they was here.
341 00:29:47 Well, hell.
342 00:29:49 I wish I could let us all lay off a day,but it's the company.
343 00:29:55 The war don't stop needing sprucejust on account of a bad day for us.
344 00:30:08 Grainier worried more and morethat something terrible was following him,
345 00:30:13 that death would find him out here,
346 00:30:16 far away from the only placehe really wanted to be.
347 00:30:20 Hey...
348 00:30:27 What do you got?
349 00:30:28 I got a pine cone.
350 00:30:29 You got a pine cone?
351 00:30:31 Oh!
352 00:30:35 I got a pine cone.
353 00:30:37 Should we go get the chicken?
354 00:30:42 Oh, look, there's one.
355 00:30:45 Chicken right there.
356 00:30:47 Come here, chicken.
357 00:30:51 - They're going inside.- They're going inside.
358 00:30:53 - They're going inside!- Chicken!
359 00:30:56 - Chicken!- Chicken!
360 00:30:57 Chicken!
361 00:30:59 They're gonna sleep in your bed,and they're gonna eat your food.
362 00:31:09 She's like a different personevery time I see her.
363 00:31:15 Feel like I'm missing her whole life.
364 00:31:19 I feel it too.
365 00:31:23 It's all going by so fast.
366 00:31:46 - You want to shoot?- No.
367 00:31:48 Only the deer want me to shoot.
368 00:31:50 Gladys.
369 00:31:54 Don't shoot.
370 00:31:56 Don't shoot me.
371 00:31:58 Keep making noise, and I will.
372 00:32:01 There he is.
373 00:32:17 Good shot.
374 00:32:26 What if we came with you?
375 00:32:28 Hmm?
376 00:32:30 Out to the cut.
377 00:32:33 - To the cut?- Mmm.
378 00:32:35 What...
379 00:32:36 Well, I... I'd be helpful.
380 00:32:38 I... I could make some moneywashing clothes.
381 00:32:42 Now she's not so much to keep up with.
382 00:32:45 Well, I know you'd be helpful.
383 00:32:47 You told me some of the othershave had their wives out there.
384 00:32:50 No, not some of the others,just that one old man.
385 00:32:54 What, and that young couplefrom California?
386 00:32:56 Dick Clinton disappeared after a week.
387 00:32:59 And then, besides,they didn't even have a little one.
388 00:33:03 It's, uh...
389 00:33:06 It's really dangerous.
390 00:33:13 I'm just trying to find a way, is all.
391 00:33:22 I know.
392 00:33:25 I know. I know. I know.
393 00:33:34 Grainier tried to find workcloser to home,
394 00:33:36 picking up odd jobs where he could.
395 00:33:40 But the war was over,and good-paying work was hard to come by.
396 00:33:50 - Sorry to keep you waiting, Robert.- Yeah, that's okay.
397 00:33:53 All right.
398 00:33:57 There you go.
399 00:33:57 All right. Appreciate it.
400 00:34:00 - Thank you.- Thank you.
401 00:34:01 Uh, if you need anything,you know where to find me.
402 00:34:04 Mmm.
403 00:34:06 Money was tighter for themthan it ever had been.
404 00:34:10 And though he didn't know it then,
405 00:34:12 he would always look backon this time in his life as his happiest.
406 00:34:17 What do you got there?
407 00:34:19 Eggs.
408 00:34:23 Eggs.
409 00:34:26 Yeah, that is kind of an egg.
410 00:34:29 There you go.
411 00:34:31 There you go.
412 00:34:40 - Tired, Katie? You ready for bed?- Yeah.
413 00:34:46 You're getting so big.
414 00:34:48 You're gonna be carrying me soon.
415 00:35:13 Maybe there's a better way.
416 00:35:16 Maybe we turn our acre into a farm.
417 00:35:19 I could grow double what I do now.
418 00:35:22 And if we did that, and we saved up enoughto start a little sawmill,
419 00:35:27 maybe you could be home more.
420 00:35:29 Get a horse or a mule on credit, I guess.
421 00:35:33 Yeah, on credit for sure.
422 00:35:36 The sawmill would takea bit more doing, you know.
423 00:35:39 It's not so cheap, but...
424 00:35:41 Yeah. Well, I didn't say it wouldn't be.
425 00:35:43 No, but it's a good idea.
426 00:35:47 It is a good idea.
427 00:35:49 Yeah.
428 00:36:00 Come on, Katie. Will you say bye-bye?
429 00:36:03 Katie, watch this. Ready?
430 00:36:15 I'll just go.
431 00:36:16 - Okay.- Love you.
432 00:36:19 I'm gonna miss you.
433 00:36:21 I love you too. All right.
434 00:36:33 Come on, Kate. Say goodbye to Daddy.
435 00:36:35 Kate. Come on.
436 00:36:39 Katie, can you put that down?
437 00:36:52 Excuse me. Looking for the foreman.
438 00:36:54 Just keep going that way.
439 00:36:57 Thank you.
440 00:37:00 He earned four dollars a day on most jobs,
441 00:37:03 minus expensesfor what the company provided.
442 00:37:10 He and Gladys figured that afterone more long stint in the woods,
443 00:37:13 they'd have enough moneyto start building a sawmill back home.
444 00:37:47 Y'all going on to another job,or you quitting for the season?
445 00:37:51 Mmm.
446 00:37:55 I can't decide.
447 00:37:56 I ain't never happywhen the job ends for some reason.
448 00:38:01 I just feel itchy inside.
449 00:38:04 That's 'cause it's rough work, gentlemen,not just on the body but on the soul.
450 00:38:09 We just cut down treesthat have been here for 500 years.
451 00:38:13 It upsets a man's soulwhether you recognize it or not.
452 00:38:18 I'll have $200in my pocket tomorrow morning.
453 00:38:22 Don't bother my soul. Not one damn bit.
454 00:38:25 That's 'cause you Minnesota fellasdon't know nothing about history.
455 00:38:29 These trees are really that old?
456 00:38:31 Why, some's older even.
457 00:38:33 This world is intricatelystitched together, boys.
458 00:38:38 Every thread we pull, we know nothow it affects the design of things.
459 00:38:43 We're but children on this earth,pulling bolts out of the Ferris wheel,
460 00:38:47 thinking ourselves to be gods.
461 00:38:48 That's horseshit.I've been to Washington too.
462 00:38:52 Cut all up through Canadaand back down again.
463 00:38:56 There's enough logsfor us to cut for 1,000 years.
464 00:39:01 And then when the last one's cut,
465 00:39:02 well, first one will be growed upas big as anything around today.
466 00:39:09 I remember thinking the same thingwhen I was a young man...
467 00:39:13 the very same thing.
468 00:39:34 You moving along, Robert?Or packing up for home?
469 00:39:39 I'm packing it up, going home.
470 00:39:44 I miss my wife and my little one.
471 00:39:48 What's her name? Your missus?
472 00:39:51 Gladys.
473 00:39:52 Mmm.
474 00:39:54 Welsh. That's a highborn name.
475 00:39:58 That makes sense, if you knew her.
476 00:40:02 Those old names have power.
477 00:40:05 The ones that have them are blessed.
478 00:40:08 Hmm.
479 00:40:11 You got family somewhere?
480 00:40:15 My family is...
481 00:40:17 everywhere there's a smiling face.
482 00:40:21 Never been somewhereI didn't have some family there.
483 00:40:25 Except for Kansas.
484 00:40:26 That state is a collectionof savage lunatics.
485 00:40:34 It's good having you around.
486 00:40:36 Not too many folks I cross paths withmore than once in this life.
487 00:40:41 I see it as a blessingwhen they're brought back around.
488 00:40:44 Ah.
489 00:40:48 I don't know where the years go, Arn.
490 00:40:51 Well... if you figure it out, let me know.
491 00:40:55 I'd like to ask for a few back.
492 00:40:59 It looked certain Arn Peepleswould exit this world in a puff of smoke
493 00:41:03 with a monstrous noise.
494 00:41:06 But he went out quite differently.
495 00:41:15 - Somebody get some help!- We need help!
496 00:41:16 - Who is it?- We got a man down!
497 00:41:18 Hey, Arn!
498 00:41:21 Arn?
499 00:41:22 - Widow-maker got him.- Arn?
500 00:41:24 Hey, Arn? Can you hear me?
501 00:41:26 I'm all right. I just...
502 00:41:28 Help me sit up. Help me sit up.
503 00:41:30 All right. Slowly.
504 00:41:34 - Can we get a little water?- I saw my sister and her husband.
505 00:41:37 They was just here.You know which way they walked to?
506 00:41:40 Arn...
507 00:41:41 He had a number of dizzy spells
508 00:41:42 and grew dreamy and forgetfulover the next few days,
509 00:41:47 forgetting even his own namebefore it was all done.
510 00:41:52 You hear that?
511 00:41:57 Beautiful, ain't it?
512 00:42:01 Just beautiful.
513 00:42:04 What is, Arn?
514 00:42:09 All of it.
515 00:42:13 Every bit of it.
516 00:42:34 Arn Peeples was my friend.
517 00:42:38 He... He said that a... a tree was a friend...
518 00:42:44 if you let it alone.
519 00:42:47 But the second the blade bit in,you had yourself a war,
520 00:42:52 and the tree was a killer.
521 00:42:56 But he wasn't messing with that tree.
522 00:43:00 It was... It was just a snag.
523 00:43:04 So, I...
524 00:43:06 I... I don't know what meaningto take from that.
525 00:43:15 In Jesus's name...
526 00:43:17 - Amen.- Amen.
527 00:43:20 Though Grainier had seen death often,
528 00:43:23 he'd never lost someone so close to him.
529 00:43:29 He began to feel a dread
530 00:43:32 that the snag had been meant for him,
531 00:43:35 that some punishment was seeking him.
532 00:43:54 Robert?
533 00:44:05 What is that?
534 00:44:06 Oh dear God.
535 00:44:11 - Come look at this.- Where is that?
536 00:44:13 - Are we heading over there?- That's not far off.
537 00:44:17 - Wow.- Wow.
538 00:44:19 Hey.
539 00:44:21 What is that?
540 00:44:37 Mary!
541 00:44:38 Mary, have you... have you seen Gladys?
542 00:44:41 No?
543 00:44:44 Gladys!
544 00:45:16 Gladys!
545 00:47:43 For nearly two weeks,he searched every town in the region,
546 00:47:46 looking for Gladys and Kate.
547 00:47:50 Four-fifty.
548 00:47:54 Finding them nowhere,
549 00:47:56 he went back to his acreto await their return.
550 00:47:59 Hey... Oh, hold on.
551 00:48:01 This is for you.
552 00:48:05 Thank you.
553 00:49:24 Water!
554 00:49:26 Water?
555 00:49:32 You gonna water the plants for Mama?
556 00:49:56 Don't you think it's too much?
557 00:50:02 How did... How did they deserve that?
558 00:50:07 Mmm?
559 00:50:12 Why?
560 00:50:17 Why?!
561 00:51:02 Hello, Robert.
562 00:51:04 You hungry?
563 00:51:22 I didn't know what I'd find out here.
564 00:51:26 You wouldn't believe the storiesthey're telling about you in town.
565 00:51:33 I'll pay you back for all this. I promise.
566 00:51:35 I didn't ask you to.
567 00:51:44 Well, I sure do appreciate you coming up
568 00:51:48 to check on me.
569 00:51:59 Let's take a walk.
570 00:52:09 Ooh, ooh, ooh.
571 00:52:25 This is a good spot for a cabin.
572 00:52:30 Do you like how I say your name?
573 00:52:41 Robert.
574 00:52:51 They're...
575 00:53:00 Th--
576 00:53:01 They're...
577 00:53:09 They're just not coming back.
578 00:53:46 I'm sorry.
579 00:53:55 I'm... I'm sorry.
580 00:53:59 I don't know what came over me.
581 00:54:06 Skin him.
582 00:54:35 Grainier raised a lean-to at his homesite,
583 00:54:38 and there he livedthrough the rest of the summer,
584 00:54:40 fishing for speckled trout
585 00:54:42 and hunting for a rareand flavorful mushroom
586 00:54:45 the Canadians called morel,
587 00:54:47 which sprang upon ground disturbed by fire.
588 00:54:52 Though he confessed it to no one,
589 00:54:55 he held some faint hopethat Gladys and Kate might somehow return.
590 00:54:59 And he wanted to be ready for themif they did.
591 00:55:09 Hey!
592 00:55:11 Get out of there.
593 00:55:19 Where'd you all come from?
594 00:55:22 Who do you belong to?
595 00:55:26 Hello?
596 00:55:28 Shouldn't y'all be in town?You look like town dogs.
597 00:55:33 Come on.
598 00:55:37 I hope you all like fish.
599 00:55:45 All right. Close your eyes. Ready?
600 00:55:52 All right, you're free. Come on.
601 00:55:55 Are these puppies really yours?
602 00:55:59 What are you doing all the way out here?
603 00:56:02 Huh?
604 00:56:03 How much do you know?
605 00:56:07 You roll over?
606 00:56:09 And sit?
607 00:56:12 Fetch?
608 00:56:31 Katie!
609 00:56:40 See that?
610 00:56:50 What kind of dog do you think they are?
611 00:56:54 I don't know.
612 00:56:57 They appear quite wolfish.
613 00:56:58 Aren't they?
614 00:57:01 I mean, maybe, uh...
615 00:57:04 maybe Red Dog got with a wolf out there
616 00:57:09 somewhere on her own, you know?
617 00:57:11 No, that's impossible.
618 00:57:13 Why not?
619 00:57:15 Only a he-wolf ever mates.
620 00:57:18 And that's the chief of the wolf pack.
621 00:57:21 Uh-huh.
622 00:57:22 And the she-wolfhe chooses to bear his litter
623 00:57:25 is the only one that ever comes into heat.
624 00:57:28 What... What if
625 00:57:31 Red Dog was in heat?
626 00:57:33 He chooses only one.
627 00:57:35 Well, what if...what if she encountered the chief wolf
628 00:57:41 at the exact moment?
629 00:57:43 You know what I mean?
630 00:57:44 Would he not take herjust for the newness of the experience?
631 00:57:54 "Newness of the experience"?
632 00:57:56 Yeah.
633 00:58:00 What?
634 00:58:01 "Newness of the experience."
635 00:58:11 Can you howl? Huh? Can you howl too?
636 00:58:15 Huh? Can you howl?
637 00:58:20 Hey, buddy.
638 00:58:21 Hey. Hey, little one.
639 00:58:24 Hey.
640 00:58:39 With Ignatius Jack's help,he raised the four walls of the cabin
641 00:58:42 precisely where the old ones had stood.
642 00:58:45 Red Dog?
643 00:58:48 He could not bring himselfto rebuild the bedroom.
644 00:58:57 In that year,a great comet appeared in the sky,
645 00:59:01 which many said signaled the end of days.
646 00:59:05 But after two weeks,it faded away as quietly as it had come.
647 00:59:17 The rebuilt cabinlooked much like the first one.
648 00:59:21 But the emptiness of the placeat times overwhelmed him.
649 00:59:27 Years passed,and he found himself still waiting.
650 00:59:32 Though at this point,he couldn't say for what.
651 01:00:21 Get your asses upon that stand of white pine!
652 01:00:26 I want every one of those treesdown this mountain
653 01:00:31 before I wake up on the Lord's day!
654 01:00:34 After that, I'm docking each oneof you one dollar a day!
655 01:00:40 Let's go!
656 01:00:52 Let's go!
657 01:01:06 Hey. Watch out, old man.Let me see that thing.
658 01:01:09 Go get a crosscut or something.
659 01:01:14 I just don't know what--
660 01:01:43 Look out! Look out! Look out!
661 01:02:07 Look out, boys!
662 01:02:15 Hey, let me know if you want some water.
663 01:02:19 You'll be okay.
664 01:02:21 Need some help up?
665 01:02:34 You mind if I warm up a minute?
666 01:02:36 Mmm.
667 01:02:43 - Billy?- Yeah.
668 01:02:45 Is that you?
669 01:02:49 Yes. Do I know you?
670 01:02:52 Yeah, we cut togetherin Salmo-Priest a few years back.
671 01:02:57 I'm... I was a friend of Arn Peeples.
672 01:03:00 I'm Robert.
673 01:03:02 Oh, yes.
674 01:03:04 Hi, Robert.
675 01:03:06 It's good to see you.
676 01:03:07 You too.
677 01:03:09 I mean,I can't believe you're still out here.
678 01:03:13 I can barely keep up at my age.
679 01:03:16 Ah, well, I justlook after the steam donkey
680 01:03:18 and keep it watered and greased.
681 01:03:21 Not much else I can do, but it's a living.
682 01:03:26 - Mmm.- Mmm.
683 01:03:32 Say, Billy, do you thinkit's a little different now out here?
684 01:03:39 I don't know if it's differentor if it's always been this way.
685 01:03:42 Maybe I was rougherand just like these boys.
686 01:03:46 I, uh, just don't remember it.
687 01:03:49 Well, uh, that is the age-old question,
688 01:03:54 ain't it, friend?
689 01:03:55 That is the question.
690 01:03:58 Yeah.
691 01:04:01 Say, how is... how is Arn?
692 01:04:07 How... How is--
693 01:04:08 I ain't seen him in, gosh...
694 01:04:12 at least a year, maybe longer.
695 01:04:20 Yeah. Uh, no.
696 01:04:23 Yeah. I... I ain't seen him either.
697 01:04:30 Ah. Ain't that how it goes?
698 01:04:42 Let me help you.
699 01:04:43 Here.
700 01:04:45 My hands are not working today.
701 01:04:46 Here.
702 01:04:49 I got you.
703 01:04:51 - Thank you.- Yeah. No problem.
704 01:04:53 And with that,Grainier was finished as a logger.
705 01:05:41 The last few years,
706 01:05:43 he expected some great revelationabout his life would descend upon him.
707 01:05:53 What's that?
708 01:06:03 Can you do that?
709 01:06:04 But as of yet, none had.
710 01:06:07 And he was beginning to doubtthat one ever would.
711 01:06:15 Hey.
712 01:06:23 Not been doing the weeding, huh?
713 01:06:32 These days,there was plenty of work in town
714 01:06:35 for anybody willingto get around after it.
715 01:06:38 He came into possessionof a pair of horses and a wagon,
716 01:06:42 by a sad circumstance, however.
717 01:06:48 Avery?
718 01:06:49 Avery Pinkham's heart conditionwould have been easily diagnosed and cured
719 01:06:53 had he been born a generation later.
720 01:06:57 Mr. Pinkham!
721 01:07:01 Grainier contracted with the Pinkhams
722 01:07:03 to buy the horses and wagonfor $300 in installments.
723 01:07:07 And he kept himself busyas a freighter of sorts.
724 01:07:12 The hauling itself was a ticketto a kind of show,
725 01:07:15 composed of the folliesand endeavors of his neighbors.
726 01:07:21 Y'all comfortable back there?
727 01:07:23 Yes.
728 01:07:24 The work put himin closer contact with them
729 01:07:26 than he had been in years.
730 01:07:29 And yet, he only felt more alone.
731 01:07:31 No?
732 01:07:46 Be gentle with the rabbits.
733 01:07:49 They don't knowyou're not gonna hurt them.
734 01:07:57 Katie.
735 01:08:22 Miss, uh...
736 01:08:24 Miss Thompson?
737 01:08:26 Claire. You must be Robert.
738 01:08:28 Uh, yes, ma'am.
739 01:08:30 Nice to meet you.
740 01:08:31 Yeah. You too.
741 01:08:33 Nice to meet you. I was looking for youat the train station.
742 01:08:36 Oh yeah, I waited a few minutes for youbefore I decided to start walking.
743 01:08:40 Yeah, I'm really sorry.
744 01:08:41 It took me a little whileto get these ladies going this morning.
745 01:08:43 And, uh...
746 01:08:45 ...would you still like meto take you up to your lookout?
747 01:08:47 - Oh, if it's not too much trouble.- No, of course. Jump up.
748 01:08:52 - You wanna...?- Yep.
749 01:08:54 Oh, okay.
750 01:08:57 All right.
751 01:08:59 All right. Ready?
752 01:09:02 All right.
753 01:09:09 What parts are you from?
754 01:09:11 Oh, I've been all over.
755 01:09:13 But I lived a long timeover in Montana. Noxon.
756 01:09:18 I've never seen Montana.
757 01:09:19 Oh, beautiful country.Yeah, worth the trip.
758 01:09:31 They told me about you, you know?
759 01:09:35 Who's they?
760 01:09:37 People who recommended you.
761 01:09:40 Mmm.
762 01:09:42 And what did they say?
763 01:09:46 That you were different.
764 01:09:49 Ain't everybody different?
765 01:09:53 No.
766 01:09:55 Mmm. Hmm.
767 01:10:00 It's a good thing to be different.
768 01:10:03 As far as I see it, anyway.
769 01:10:09 I'm so happy to be here.This valley is special.
770 01:10:17 Used to all be under a glacier, you know?Three thousand feet of ice.
771 01:10:21 When it broke,it just flooded the whole region.
772 01:10:27 Carved out all these valleys.
773 01:10:30 That's where all those lakes come from.
774 01:10:32 Can you imagineif you were back here then?
775 01:10:34 This big block of ice,thousands of feet tall,
776 01:10:37 and just the cracksand the freezing-cold water.
777 01:10:42 It must have feltlike the world was coming to an end.
778 01:10:47 Hmm.
779 01:10:50 That's where all those myths come from,you know?
780 01:10:52 All those flood stories.
781 01:10:54 All those different religionsall over the world.
782 01:10:56 It's just the same story,different slants.
783 01:11:01 Hey, I didn't mean to be disrespectful
784 01:11:03 to anything you believeor anything like that.
785 01:11:04 I just, you know...
786 01:11:05 No, no, no.
787 01:11:07 I just find it fascinating.
788 01:11:09 Can't help itwhen I'm in a place like this. It's just...
789 01:11:16 The world's an old place.
790 01:11:17 Yeah.
791 01:11:20 Probably nothing it hasn't seen by now.
792 01:11:28 Claire had worked in Europeas a nurse in the Great War.
793 01:11:32 Now she was employedby the newly created US Forest Service
794 01:11:36 as part of an effort to manage timber cutsand prevent forest fires.
795 01:11:41 Oh, uh, thank you.
796 01:11:45 It was nice to meet you, Robert.
797 01:11:48 - Thank you for the ride.- It was very nice to meet you too.
798 01:11:52 Yeah. Okay.
799 01:11:55 Uh...
800 01:11:56 Oh.
801 01:11:58 - There you go.- Thank you.
802 01:12:00 You don't need a hand?
803 01:12:01 - Nope.- No? Okay.
804 01:12:06 Take care now.
805 01:12:37 Did I scare you?
806 01:12:41 Oh boy.
807 01:13:54 Robert.
808 01:14:58 Katie!
809 01:15:12 It's all right.
810 01:15:15 Just gonna put a blanket over...
811 01:15:30 Mama...
812 01:17:35 Miss Thompson?
813 01:17:37 Are you up there?
814 01:17:46 Robert?
815 01:17:47 Oh.
816 01:17:49 What a surprise.
817 01:17:51 How are you?
818 01:17:52 Good.
819 01:17:54 Yeah. I hope I didn't startle you.
820 01:17:57 No. Not at all.
821 01:17:58 I was just heading outfor an afternoon survey,
822 01:18:01 and... and I heard you call.
823 01:18:03 Oh, yeah.
824 01:18:05 - Yeah, I--- Did you...
825 01:18:07 I was just passing through
826 01:18:08 and thought I'd just,you know, check on you.
827 01:18:14 Doesn't get spooky up this high?
828 01:18:17 No. I think it's peaceful.
829 01:18:21 I watch the clouds formand the light change,
830 01:18:24 and I get paid to do it.
831 01:18:26 It's a gift.
832 01:18:29 Mmm, yeah, I can see that.
833 01:18:36 How'd you come to this?
834 01:18:38 I saw a flyer for the job opening
835 01:18:41 just when I needed it.
836 01:18:43 Here, fireweed.
837 01:18:44 Oh, thank you.
838 01:18:47 I had to get a recommendationfrom a family friend.
839 01:18:51 In his words,
840 01:18:52 "Claire Thompson is absolutely devoid
841 01:18:54 of the timidity normally associatedwith her sex."
842 01:18:57 "She possessesmore than adequate work ethic..."
843 01:19:01 "...and is unafraid of anythingthat walks, creeps, or flies."
844 01:19:08 Hmm.
845 01:19:09 How is it?
846 01:19:11 Mmm.
847 01:19:12 It's good. Thank you.
848 01:19:22 Everything looks so small from up here.
849 01:19:27 Yeah.
850 01:19:31 You want to take a look?
851 01:19:40 - Everything grows so fast.- Mm-hmm.
852 01:19:42 You can barely tella fire came through here.
853 01:19:45 It's like it didn't even happen.
854 01:19:55 Were you here when it came through?
855 01:20:03 No.
856 01:20:06 I wasn't.
857 01:20:10 But, uh...
858 01:20:12 my wife and... and my baby, uh...
859 01:20:21 Yeah. They, uh... They didn't make it out.
860 01:20:25 Oh, Robert.
861 01:20:26 Yeah. You see, sometimes it... it...
862 01:20:32 It feels like the sadnesswill just eat me alive, but...
863 01:20:38 sometimes it just... It feels like it...it happened to somebody else.
864 01:20:46 But no, I wasn't here.
865 01:20:51 Uh, not when, uh...
866 01:20:54 Not when...when I should have been, I guess,
867 01:20:57 and when... when, uh,they needed me the most.
868 01:21:09 I hear them sometimes.
869 01:21:13 Out there in the woods.
870 01:21:16 Just talking and laughing.
871 01:21:21 Yeah.
872 01:21:23 I don't even want to turn my headbecause I'm afraid...
873 01:21:28 that I'll scare them away.
874 01:21:34 So I just listen...
875 01:21:39 until they fade away somewhere else...
876 01:21:44 wherever those things go.
877 01:21:52 Never told anybody else that.
878 01:21:59 You think that makes me sound crazy?
879 01:22:09 Yeah. I lost my husband too,a little over a year ago.
880 01:22:15 It took him a long time.
881 01:22:18 And when it was over,it was like there was a...
882 01:22:21 a hole in the world.
883 01:22:24 I had more questions than answers,
884 01:22:27 like no human had ever died before.
885 01:22:32 When you go through something like that,nothing you do is crazy.
886 01:22:38 You just go through what you go through.
887 01:22:40 Mmm.
888 01:22:43 In the forest,every least thing's important.
889 01:22:47 It's all threaded together,
890 01:22:49 so you can't tell where one thing endsand another begins
891 01:22:51 if you really look at it.
892 01:22:56 The little insects you can't even see,they play a role as vital as the river.
893 01:23:01 The dead tree is as importantas the living one.
894 01:23:08 There must be somethingfor us to learn from that.
895 01:23:12 What if you got nothing left to give?
896 01:23:16 Hmm? What then?
897 01:23:19 Mmm...
898 01:23:21 The world needs a hermit in the woodsas much as a preacher in the pulpit.
899 01:23:30 Yeah. Yeah.
900 01:23:33 Is that what I am?
901 01:23:36 A hermit?
902 01:23:38 Well, I mean,I believe we both are, in our own ways.
903 01:23:44 Just waiting to seewhat we've been left here for.
904 01:24:58 Though he knew it must be impossible,
905 01:25:01 the thought overwhelmed himthat his daughter had returned.
906 01:25:05 Katie?
907 01:25:11 Kate.
908 01:25:13 Katie?
909 01:25:17 Oh, Kate.
910 01:25:18 Okay.
911 01:25:34 Okay.
912 01:25:41 Okay.
913 01:25:46 Oh my God.
914 01:25:48 Honey, your leg's broken.
915 01:25:50 This is gonna hurt, just for a moment.
916 01:26:00 Okay.
917 01:26:18 Katie.
918 01:26:24 No.
919 01:26:57 Okay.
920 01:27:24 You want to get some water, honey?
921 01:27:26 - Yeah.- All right.
922 01:27:28 Up.
923 01:27:33 Wow.
924 01:27:34 What did you do?
925 01:27:36 What did you do that for?
926 01:27:42 Water!
927 01:27:52 Bye-bye.
928 01:27:54 Bye-bye.
929 01:27:56 Bye-bye.
930 01:28:18 Katie?
931 01:28:27 Kate?
932 01:28:34 Kate!
933 01:28:37 Kate!
934 01:29:03 Seeing Kate again felt as realas anything else in his life,
935 01:29:08 even as he wonderedif it had really happened to him.
936 01:29:14 He spent many days and evenings wanderingthe forests and fields of the region,
937 01:29:20 looking for any sign of her.
938 01:29:28 Though he found none,
939 01:29:30 he spent the rest of his days waiting
940 01:29:33 so he would be thereif she ever came back.
941 01:30:33 In his later years,
942 01:30:34 Grainier rode the Great Northernfrom time to time into Spokane.
943 01:30:43 He wandered the citywithout much direction or purpose,
944 01:30:46 as if looking for somethinghe had misplaced a long time ago.
945 01:30:55 Roger, zero G, and I feel fine.
946 01:30:57 Capsule is turning around.
947 01:31:00 Oh, that view is tremendous.
948 01:31:03 What is that fellow doing?
949 01:31:05 Roger, capsule...
950 01:31:06 He's in outer space.
951 01:31:07 I could see the booster during turnaroundjust a couple of hundred yards behind me.
952 01:31:11 Huh.
953 01:31:13 Roger...
954 01:31:14 So is that...?
955 01:31:16 That's us.
956 01:31:18 Roger. Understand gofor at least seven orbits.
957 01:31:22 Huh.
958 01:31:24 ...a camel spit gold from his teeth.
959 01:31:26 Gold!
960 01:31:27 Witness Sun Tzu,the holy man from the far, far east.
961 01:31:32 Sun Tzu, the holy man,will read your dreams.
962 01:31:35 Experience the world-famousBittler Sisters,
963 01:31:38 or better yet,pay you a dime to see a monster.
964 01:31:41 You. You.
965 01:31:43 Come here. Come here.Yeah. Cast the stone aside.
966 01:31:47 Inside this theater,
967 01:31:48 the mysteries of the world flit aboutlike bats and insects.
968 01:31:52 Here, all the answers to everything.You buy a ticket...
969 01:31:56 That night in the theater,he took in a curiosity show
970 01:31:59 that promised a vision of a monster
971 01:32:02 but was only a boy in a costume.
972 01:32:09 He saw his face in a mirrorfor the first time in nearly a decade.
973 01:32:15 He could see now the tollthat the years had taken.
974 01:32:20 He felt that he was only just beginning
975 01:32:22 to have some faint understandingof his life,
976 01:32:26 even though it was now slipping awayfrom him.
977 01:32:33 Just four dollars,see the world as only the birds do.
978 01:33:12 Hey, you'd better hold on to something.
979 01:33:15 Huh?
980 01:33:31 Robert.
981 01:34:14 Beautiful, ain't it?
982 01:34:17 Just beautiful.
983 01:34:22 When Robert Grainier died in his sleep
984 01:34:24 sometime in November of 1968,
985 01:34:28 his life ended as quietly as it had begun.
986 01:34:32 He'd never purchased a firearmor spoken into a telephone.
987 01:34:37 He had no ideawho his parents might have been,
988 01:34:39 and he left no heirs behind him.
989 01:34:44 But on that spring day,
990 01:34:46 as he misplaced all sense of up and down,
991 01:34:51 he felt, at last, connected to it all.
992 01:35:44 I seen a grizzly big as a house
993 01:35:47 Walk across an open plain
994 01:35:51 Heard of a boy called Elvis something
995 01:35:54 His voice could driveYoung girls insane
996 01:35:58 I’ve seen a man from a mile away
997 01:36:01 Shoot a bobcat through the brain but
998 01:36:04 Lately I’ve been having dreams
999 01:36:07 Crazy dreams I can’t explain
1000 01:36:11 A woman standingIn a field of flowers and
1001 01:36:15 A screaming locomotive train
1002 01:36:18 Crazy dreams that go on for hours
1003 01:36:22 And I can’t beginTo tell you how that feels
1004 01:36:39 I've seen an elk with twisted antlers
1005 01:36:42 Throw bright lightning across the sky
1006 01:36:45 Seen a man with a broken curse
1007 01:36:49 Leap from a bridge and try to fly
1008 01:36:52 Seen a boy who was a dog
1009 01:36:56 Who became a man who forgot to die
1010 01:36:59 Lately I’ve been having dreams
1011 01:37:03 Crazy dreams I can’t explain
1012 01:37:06 A woman standingIn a field of flowers and
1013 01:37:10 A screaming locomotive train
1014 01:37:13 Crazy dreams that go on for hours
1015 01:37:16 And I can’t beginTo tell you how that feels
1016 01:37:47 The space that connects meWhere I am now
1017 01:37:51 To the place where I’ll one day be
1018 01:37:54 It's measured in the wordsThat we speak
1019 01:37:57 And the strange and wondrous thingsI’ve seen
1020 01:38:01 It’s measured in truth,It's measured in love
1021 01:38:04 Measured in a tendency to pain
1022 01:38:07 Measured by a girlIn a field of flowers
1023 01:38:11 A screaming dream of a midnight train
1024 01:38:15 This has been going on for years
1025 01:38:18 Years and years and years and years
1026 01:38:25 I can’t begin to tell you How that feels
1027 01:40:29 If the Lord was a redwood
1028 01:40:33 Would you try to cut Him down?
1029 01:40:36 Or climb up His loving branches And look around?
1030 01:40:43 If the river was the tears
1031 01:40:46 Of all those who've passed
1032 01:40:50 Would you try to dam it up
