Anyone hear from Ina lately?

She's been on my mind a lot lately. I was just wondering how she's doing.

I heard from her shortly after Christmas, but I was in no condition (shingles) to do much more than look at her post. She was doing great and getting ready for spring. She talked about HB but in a good way, and she's doing her walks as usual. I'll check with her soon and let you all know. She's so amazing. When she sends good thoughts and burns her sage, you can literally feel it across the miles.

I heard from her today. Told her NN was asking about how she was doing, so I'll get a good reply and will post part of it.

Here is an excerpt from Ina's latest email. As you can see, she in typical fashion is not letting anything get her down.

I am giving up hope that Kesa will ever chose to actively become aggressive and kill anything. HB would find her..severely lacking in the old pioneer/woodland life style. Missy Kesa is a fluffy Urban..I am thinking. My health continues to amaze everyone..and so..it is simply..on we go. I do everything I used to..just more of it. The information about how the ..bounced/wobbled/twisting/hiking body..enhances the repair of the bones..certainly makes me keep a sharp eye on my continued activity level. Of course I am ..toying with the idea of taking an asprin now but..since it is already 1:53 PM here..I may just blow it off. Yesterday I was rappelling a bit..from the ferns and buckbrush hand hold I had..going down a mud river bank..and slipped a little..which then ..propelled me into a full out..tarzan type swing. You can just see me can’t you..awwway from the bank..out over the sandy slough and rock below..blah blah. Well..the hand hold..’held’..and I grabbed another toe hold with my boots (should have had tennys)..and then..eased on down. My fathers training on what you can hold onto..hand wise..has saved my neck..over these many years. He always explaind the root depth and size..in all plants so..that I could sort of..like when you pull the pin out of a grenade..and then ‘pause/count’throw’..that I could estimate the amount of time and weight..I could ..count on..using brush/plants..rather than ropes/sticks. The business of..boot-toes..is of course..a whole nuther story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those of you who knew her can appreciate her telling of this story.

We need an Ina forum, to encourage her to post more often.

Thanks for sharing her story. I used to really enjoy them.

I'm so happy she's doing well after all she's been through. Please tell her we are thinking about her.

Where's the "LIKE/LOVE" button when you need it? LOL

I can just see Ina doing a Tarzan-type swing, but I would suspect that she did it for fun, and not purely accidental.
