Greyson and I are back at our tennis. The weather hasn't been that great so we have only gotten in 3 trips so far. We are better then we were last year at this time but still have some major issues to work on. Traci said that she and Tim are taking lessons this year so I think we will definitely have to have a tournament at some point. Get those Porter kids educated on the fine points of ball boy/girl duties. I have also been working out but am not seeing any results so far. All I have is a stiff neck, sore hip and popping knee. We tried to go play rec. v-ball last week but there was some event using the gym. We don't have high hopes for the quality of play but we thought we would give it a try.
The chicken missing a bunch of feathers was giving herself a dirt bath today. I didn't know chickens did that. And when she was laying all cool in the dirt the other mean chicken came and tried to peck more feathers out. Our garden is doing alright but we have bugs chewing on our green beans and basil and there just isn't enough sun to make things thrive. However, the lettuce and spinach are happy campers.
Greyson and I (alright mostly me) have been pondering kitten choices. We were talking about getting another siamese and then I saw bengal cats that are pretty cool. Then I looked at their price tag.... And I haven't told Greyson but I might want to get 2 kittens at once. So that means I probably won't be getting them for a long time.
Work was slow the last couple of weeks but should pick up soon. I am heading down to La Grande area for the week of June 19th and July 3rd to do some plant, animal and wetland surveys. Greyson is busy getting his business card and website together. Ada is now on stimulants for the rest of her life to keep from dripping. Miles is in hunting mode when he isn't sleeping. The hummingbirds are mad that I didn't keep their feeder full yesterday and have dwindled in numbers today. I am thinking about washing the car but that may have to wait until tomorrow. That's all from me for now.

Yes we're taking lessons, and the kids too. I'm committing to the whole golfing membership since it's only $150 more a year and I want India to see a female having fun, (I might have to fake that) and learn a skill she can enjoy all her life. She's not as quick to get her coordination and stroke as the boys.
I'm taking a writing hiatus because it's driving me nuts and I want to enjoy my children and Tim.
We're looking forward to the Deans coming some time in late June?? And we are ready for camping.
All is well here and we've had lots of comments on how the yard looks. I love Rebecca, the fountain. So beautiful and serene.
Anita may be joining us on camping and other get togethers. If anyone wants her phone number just let us know. She's testing the familial waters.
