Fish and Wildlife Service; about to celebrate 50 years of marriage to Sally Harris (we met in the dorms at Humboldt 1959); and am finishing up the manuscript for my fifth book, this one of California history as told by the California condor story.

I have retired from a long-time working as a Public Heath Nurse in Humboldt County (28yrs.) I then went back to my alma mater and acheived a BA in music (my 2nd Love) in May, 2009. I'm not doing too much now--recovering from my open heart surgery last July. I really enjoy helping my 2 young granddaughters, ages 5 and 7 with their piano lessons. That's all for now!

After 18 years as a public servant (National Park Service and U.S. Forest Service), I left the agencies to teach environmnetal education full time. After another 18 years of doing just that, the bottom has now fallen out of my funding, so I'm back to rangering again! My husband and I also farm organically, with the help of our mules, and have homesteaded in the upper Skagit (near North Cascades National Park)for almost 30 years. Vistors are always welcome!

After multiple layoffs from newspapers, magazines and tech websites, I've settled into deadline-free blogging and lite marketing for a small, Bay Area-based printing company. I might not be changing the world, but I'm stress-free, loving living in Oakland with my sister and two cats!
