There's no way I wouldn't show this one. Since I was a hemophiliac most of my life (I'm still genetically one), my ankles are shot, from repeated internal bleeds. Now I can walk, but if I walk a long way (like shopping in a Super Walmart) and over rough terrain, I'm ruined for two days. But I did. I love nature. When I was a teen this hike would have been nothing, but as I write this I'm stiff and hurting. Oh well, it's only pain, no big deal. Anyway this is waaaayyyy down a trail in the Land Between The Lakes on finger jutting out into Barkley Lake. They have at least two wooden bridges across creeks. There may be more, we never made it to the end. Go there or be square, is all I've got to say. It's very nice and naturish. Oh, one deer zoomed across my path about 10 feet from me. I guess she didn't like my smell.
Thanks for comments about my health. It's not a big deal. Anyone with a chronic disease, if they have the right attitude, consider it just part of life. What I was trying to urge was for fellow photogs to GO AFTER THE SHOT, even if it hurts.

Zach’s Story
I recently got genetically tested, and I tested positive for Lynch syndrome which runs in the family. The way I described it was it was like you're about to jump into a pool and you know it's going to be really cold when you jump in, but it’s still a shock. If you do the math, my great-grandfather had colon cancer, my grandfather and my father and uncle, so while that helps prepare me for the news that I had Lynch it's still a very big eye-opener. Better safe than sorry--worst-case scenario is if I get tested is I can prepare better for the future, and best case scenario is I know I'm in the clear and don't have to worry about anything. If I didn't get tested really it just leaves everything in the air and this is a lot more unknowns. I had to deal with this, had to get tested and start taking cautionary steps to help prevent any cancer in the future.
I got my first colonoscopy over the summer which wasn't fun at all but it's a necessary evil. It’s stressful but necessary to have to deal with--it's stuff like that that's tolerable. People should recognize everything that they can to help be preventative and to just take care of themselves, like eating healthy and being active-- all that is important for any normal healthy person but even more so when you know that you have this this condition.
The best thing I could have done for myself is get checked. Making sure you know what's coming your way is the most important thing that you can do. The cons from knowing this at such a young age are completely blown away by all the benefits.

The following description of the inoculation process at Dorena is excerpted from pages 72 and 73 of the Whitebark Pine Restoration Strategy for the Pacific Northwest Region. 2009–2013 (available here: ecoshare.info/uploads/documents/WPB_Strategy_PNW_093008cl...):
"The Dorena Genetic Resource Center (Dorena), a component of the regional genetics program of Pacific Northwest Region (and a partner with the regional Forest Health Protection group), has established protocols for blister rust resistance testing of whitebark pine. These protocols are based on those developed and successfully used for screening of western white pine (P. monticola) and sugar pine (P. lambertiana) over the past 5 decades (Danchok et al. 2003).
Resistance testing involves inoculation of young (usually 2-year-old) seedlings with spores of C. ribicola and evaluation of seedlings for up to 5 years after inoculation. Inoculation usually takes place in late August or during September (which coincides with time of natural infection in the field). Seedlings are moved into a climate-controlled inoculation chamber. Temperature within the inoculation chamber is maintained at around 16.7° C (62° F) and relative humidity at 100 percent.
Ribes spp. are the alternative host for C. ribicola, and spores from infected Ribes spp. are necessary to infect the pines. Ribes spp. leaves infected with C. ribicola at the telial stage are collected from forests in Oregon and Washington or from the Ribes garden at Dorena. The Ribes leaves are placed on wire frames above the seedlings, telial side down. Spore fall is monitored until the desired (target) inoculum density of basiospores is reached for each box; the Ribes leaves are then removed. After the target inoculum density is reached for the last box, the temperature is raised to 20° C, and the seedlings are left in the inoculation chamber for approximately 48 hours to ensure spore germination and infection of the pine needles.
Following inoculation, the seedlings are transported outside. The seedlings are evaluated over a period of 5 years for the presence of disease symptoms and mortality. The first symptoms to develop are needle lesions, or ‘spots.’ These are typically assessed approximately 9 months and 1 year after inoculation. Presence and number of stem symptoms along with mortality is assessed annually for 5 years after inoculation."
