    Just discovered this in the local Willamette Falls Development Website. It's a pic of a young local tribe member (Siletz), who weaves some beautiful baskets.
    Her names Chantele Rilatos and she was selected as an Indigenous Place Keeping Artist for 2025.
    Some are still making the ancestors (and Us) proud !
