Echo from Deep Valley with Ho Lan

A song bounces from slope to slope, emerging from the valley as an echo. Just out of earshot from Spokane Falls we meet star Taiwanese yodeler, Ho Lan.

Fil Corbitt: The yodel is kind of this thing that ties people to wild places in some way. Do you agree with that? 
Ho Lan: Yeah, maybe connected… connected to everything.

White Cloudy Valley with its gracefully winding brook.

I wish to store the great love in my heart, deep within its bosom.

Ah! I call out, with hope that you can hear and understand.

May the valley echo my love to the far corners of the earth.
