 Our lovely daughter is moving on to High School. Her mother and I are very proud of her, and so is the rest of her family. We know she will do well there in High School, and promises to also have a great time there. Chances are she will join 4H, as well as go to the horticulture class that they have at her new school. She is definitely are "outgoing" outdoors child, and I could see her enjoying her time at the County High School. Everyone take the time to give her congrats, and to tell how proud you are of her. We all love you, and we know you will do well!!

 Our beloved friend, companion, and protector, Lucy, who has been with us for 14 years, breathed her last breath while I held her this morning. Lucy was the epitome of what a good dog should be like. Fantastic with children, protective, lovable, and always happy. Always wanting to be petted, and to spend time with anyone who would let her. Most of my children can't remember life without her. Always there day and night, she slept by Leslie's side of the bed, ever on the ready to bark if she should hear even a twig snap outside the house. Belle, our German Shephard has always had Lucy there, and I'm sure she will miss her more than any of us, because they kept each other company while the family went places. Both Belle and Lucy would tag along with each other and would love going to the pond to take a dip as much as they could during the summer months.
Lucy hated for anyone to fight, and would place herself between any of the girls while arguments would occur amongst them. When Lucy was a younger dog, we had a Ferret named Slick, who she LOVED to roll around on the floor with and play. When other dogs would come over, they saw Slick as a snack, so Lucy would walk, towering over him, all around the house, making sure the other dog did not touch her friend. If they got close, she would growl at them, and she protected him like her baby. She really loved him. Lucy would act the same way with the cats here, licking and watching over them, like they were her own. None of our cats, bunnies, ferrets were afraid of Lucy, and many times would fall asleep laying next to her. No other animal ever had the impact that Lucy did with our family. She truly was a member of the Kulig Family, and will be deeply missed. I know that along with us, if you have ever spent a moment at the Kulig Farm, you were touched by her sense of love and friendship. Lucy, we will really miss you!! We couldn't have been luckier than to have you in our lives!!

 One of our biggest (no pun intended) problems out on the farm has been our horse Memphis. Memphis was a stallion (that means he was not gelded, and for those who don't know what that means, just think of it as neutered, but on a larger scale in the horse world). We could have had a vet come out and geld him, mainly because horses act better from a riding standpoint. However, that was the whole problem for us. We do not ride horses as a hobby. We have horses out there for our family, and for company who visits us. We just do not have the need for 4 riding horses.
Many of the people out here in our neighborhood, really get into horseback riding. They also have their mouths wired shut, broken hands and legs and other various issues that I really do not have interest in myself, soooo, with that said, when it was time to spend money on a horse we were never going to ride, my wife and I thought to ourselves that it was like buying a new engine for an old car. Perhaps it was better that another family had the opportunity to look at Memphis in a different light, and would be willing to spend the time and money it would take to make him the superstar we know he is.
We will miss him. He was born here, raised here, but unfortunately caused sooooo many fights with the horses, that most of them have bite marks all over their bodies. Some of the horses escaped from the fencing, and went up to the house and waited for us to come home. We tried to get them to go back, but as soon as they saw Memphis, they would refuse to go back in. It took us to fence Memphis off from the rest of the horses before they would all settle down. Memphis was sold to a man 6 doors down, so we will be able to see him anytime we want.

I meant to write this from last week, but Leslie and I got to actually spend some alone time away from the kids and went to go see Iron Man. As an old Marvel comic book lover, I thought the movie was great. Robert Downey Jr as Tony Stark was actually a wonderful choice. He was a less serious version of Tony, but that actually worked. He didn't come off as the standard hero type, but all and all the movie was pulled together very well. Beyond, the movie, it was just nice to get out alone. To actually be able to hold hands with my wife, and then afterwards, spend some time talking. In our life, that's about as good as it gets. Enjoy a clip of the movie here by clicking here -->:

 I have been working up at the orchard getting things ready for this summer. So far the grapes, cherries and peaches look like they are coming along great. I need to go get some black berries, but it looks like we have a bumper crop of raspberries. This year I tried a new fruit up there, one that apparently was genetically enhanced to survive in the colder weather. Kiwi's now can grow in climates as far south as Canada. I'm not sure how they will do, but they look good so far. Arctic Kiwi's look a bit different on the outside, but apparently pretty well look the same on the inside, as well as taste the same.
I spent some time and weeded the strawberries, and so far they look wonderful. I do think the June bearing strawberries are the better breed of plants because I think they grow so fast, that they choke out all the weeds. I think I'm going to let the lower patch get overrun with June bearing plants just for maintenance reasons. I definitely don't have the time to constantly weed the entire orchard, much less, even the strawberry patch. I am not looking to have a thousand and one strawberries, but if we can all have straberry shortcake once, I'll be happy.
As far as the apple, prunes and plums go, I am not sure how they will do, but hopefully this will be a good year for the orchard as a whole. |
