Wally is definitely a boy - Joan took him to the vet and he is very healthy and doing just fine thank you very much. Weighs two pounds. As you can see, he's still with us and we're still protecting him from the dogs. Athena is still VERY interested. The vet says he needed worming and kitten shots, but otherwise he's doing well. This past week I called all around to no-kill shelters - the Riverside Humane Society has 70 kittens in foster care. I don't know how we are possibly going to find this little guy a home. Anybody in Riverside who wants him and will keep him safe, let me know!
This week was hectic at work - about a hundred emails to clean up when I got back from Monterey (business trip to a conference last week - how bad could that be? - Monterey was gorgeous - see my facebook page for some pictures). What I love about my job is the variety - I get to do a lot of different things. All the regular manager stuff - stats, personnel issues, regional things - but I also get to participate in policy making and implementation committees and go to conferences once in a while. Big whoop, I know, for most people, but for me - I love it!
The garden is suffering from a squash explosion and the sparrow hawks are back! I saw a brown towhee today - first one this spring. The birds also found the first good plum, so out came the bird nets. I hope nobody gets caught, but I am not willing to give up my crop. Today was beautiful - 80ish and clear. Keep that great Cali June weather coming!

It is fun to read your "Highgrove" blog. I'm headed to San Diego to see Clover and my other sister. I'll check out your photos of facebook.
