Humane California Fundraiser
Karen held her Humane California fundraiser over the weekend. We had a strong turnout, raised $1350 for the “Yes on Prop 2″ campaign, and met a lot of new people. Karen and I are grateful to have such a wonderful group of friends and family who so eagerly shared their time and money for a cause very important to us. We can’t thank you enough.

Yes on Prop 2
Karen, my wonderful wife, likes protecting animals. She has been working hard on a California ballot initiative that would ban certain types of crates for egg-laying hens, veal, and pregnant pigs. I have never seen her work so hard on anything. She spends every free moment on this project that is so very important to her.
I saw her stand countless hours in front of stores collecting signatures, all by herself. Most people were at least nice, if not helpful. Some people were just plain mean. But she would keep standing and keep collecting.
