Concert in the Country

Thursday, November 17th, 2011

On Saturday, Nov. 5, our Purdy `Ohana had a "Concert in the Country."   It was a beautiful night with great music, great food, and most of all, a great crowd.  But, our sincerest apologies go out to the Molokai Fire Dept., Fire Inspector Rick Schonely, the Molokai Police Dept., and the Molokai community for an unfortunate fire that occurred during our event.  We definitely do not condone illegal fireworks, and it was not part of our planning, but in a crowd of over 200 people we had no control over what had happened.  We didn't see who did it in the midst of all that was going on, but it was a well-learned lesson for us all.  We were so fortunate that it was contained and didn't cause any major damage.

Autumn started late, but came in with a roar. Blustery winds and horizontal rains have arrived and the forecast for this winter is rainier than normal conditions. What does this mean for gardeners and farmers? It means more weeds, more diseases, and the need for wind protection for most crops. It also means that with the cold weather comes a whole new set of crops to grow. Most of what you plant today won’t come out until mid January, but between now and then, there will be a lot of challenges to contend with.

Full-time Veterinarian on Molokai

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

Growing up as kid in Maryland, Dr. Stewart Morgan said he always liked animals. But in recent years, he’s taken that appreciation to a new level – advancing from owning a few guinea pigs to practicing medicine on cats, dogs, horses, cattle and many other animals that needed care.

Dr. Morgan recently brought that love of four-legged friends to Molokai, where he will serve as the Molokai Humane Society’s (MoHS) first-ever full-time veterinarian.

He visited the island for a two-week tryout in August, quickly realizing “how much a [full-time] vet was needed here,” he said.
