I've been a fan of Joseph's since I was young, and first started researching the story on my own. I've spent some time 'between the rivers' of the Nez Perce homeland. After 'resettlement' he had to go live on the Colville Rez which is where he died. They are 'cousins', all the inland natives are Salish people. Anyway, there is a little park and monument to Joseph just north of Nespelem. I stop at least once per year.

I'd like to think I choose Joseph's way more often than not.

Thanks for another great freedom Friday post. I'm pretty fond of them.
