Wombats

Wombats are a mix of teddybear( soft to the touch with an adorable face), groundhog(diggers extrodinaire) and baby pig (all muscle and tiny legs). They are hated by the farmers out here in the bush because they dig extensive burrow systems in paddocks.Since they are nocturnal the only ones I have seen in the wild have been late at night as we move bees or dead and swollen by the side of the road. They are marsupials, but with a twist! Their pouch is backwards, so as they dig the babies don't get dirty. Plus they poop is squares. Yes, cubic feces, like briquets.

This is the busy time in the bee world! Here is our newest toy! I would call it a forklift, but Stevie calls is an Avant which is a one ton articulated loader made in Finland. Eventually I will be the one loading and unloading beeboxes with it--but that is a few steps ahead of me. I want him to paint "Robyn Rover" on it.
As far as breast cancer news, I have an oncologist in Sydney, Dr. Gavin Marx ( he has an excellent reputation and he is soooo cute!) and I will be part of clinical trial comparing Tamaxifin to Arimidex. So that is a good thing.
