Sta'Kay'Ulth is now eight months old and he continues to grow, and have fun everyday, I started leaving him at home for the day, usually for just a few hours, he seems to be adjusting to his new home without me.  I will be moving back to the land soon, as this Sunday the clocks jump ahead 1 hour, it will be spring in 2 weeks, and the weather is getting warmer everyday, I will soon say good bye to my winter home address and moving on to my own location, this will be the last year I will be staying away from my land for the winter season, I anticipate doing allot of work with regards to building a weatherproof location on the land, this winter season has taught me so much about survival and it is now time to move on to new experiences for the summer season.  I am still keeping a close eye on Sta'Kay'Ulth to see if I should get him fixed, sooner or later, he still seems to be a pup in many ways.  Taking this into account and helping me decide when or even if I should get him fixed.  He sure enjoys running on the land, and this winter season has not been as cold as other years.  I am also continuing my work on my river walk as well as an island trail on the south island along the river, the north island already has a trail along it, so there is not as much work to do there.  I hope to have the complete river walk trail open by this May, when I plan on traveling to Colorado for a grad ceremony.  I will try and keep the posts coming and add a few pictures from time to time to show how my wolf is growing up.  Here are a few sights I seen earlier today while walking.

Within a few seconds it flew off into the sky, I will never forget the feeling of this event, it is very sacred to hold one in your hand like this
