| In 2005 I donated less time to such causes, in order to focus on updating my first book, Trees of Seattle. In 2006 I donated less time in order to regain my health. Since then, I have been helping in unofficial ways, both individuals and groups. And 2011, 2012 and 2013 find me serving on the board of the Montlake Community Club. |
