Windsor and Kelly Engineering designed the bracing. My buddy helped out on the project. Small world.

Your so right. Someone needs to explain to me the "2 years".

She lived in that tree. For two years. Really.

Got famous. Wrote a book about it. Worked as an activist. Burnt out on celebrity and now lives quietly.

My friend gave me a signed copy of the book and she wrote "may your days be filled with hope" but the h looked like a d lol

I think I gave it to goodwill a few moves ago.

I remember her. I have a book about redwoods with her in it. Interesting how she had to totally retreat from the public.

CaptJM t1_iubymkr wrote on October 30, 2022 at 3:58 AM

She does like 250 speaking events a year (per Wikipedia)

Confused about your comment about retreating.

Madrona88 t1_iuc1fnq wrote on October 30, 2022 at 4:28 AM

See, as I read the website, she seemed to say no thanks to that...now I'm confused.

It’s neat either way

I had to make sure I wasn't imagining it. On her welcome page she says it got to be too much..

This message is to let you know that i am no longer available for anything at all relating to me being “Julia Butterfly Hill.”

it could use a few commas but you guys honestly need to take a class in reading comprehension if you can't discern the meaning behind it.

My brain refused to register that Julia Butterfly Hill was a person, not an insect or geographical feature, for longer than I'd like to admit.
