ABOUT US

    The Fontanesia pack is presently consisted of 3 quadrupeds (Chase Moravia Zaurak The Fontanesia pack is presently consisted of 3 quadrupeds (Chase Moravia Zaurak Rhode Ridgeback bitch, born in 1999, Agbani Brown Pearl Fontanesia Rhode Ridgeback, born 2002 and Hatifa Of Gentle Lions Maine Coon cat, born in 2002) and of 2 bipeds: Mr. Jindřich Zachariáš - the lord of creation (further just "Master") and me (see Contact). Us, bipeds, we are already quite old, especially Master is. We both need reading glasses. Up to now I have solved this problem using the method of a telescopic thoracic extremity. My husband has given up. He owns and uses glasses in which he looks like Santa Claus. Also he is not so keen on bivouacking on the snow during multi-days ascents. Before meal he now swallows bunch of different health keeping pills, which are non-covered by an insurance company. But it actually brings an advantage - our next food can already be simple.

    Our wider Fontanesia pack also comprises 3 fishponds full of fish and other beasts in our cottage, which I have to feed the whole summer and which we cannot eat because the master is obstinate vegetarian. When I kill a carp, the master acts like I would cut his head of. But I do not feel well either when I imagine that we eat a member of our family. Luckily we do not have to worry about an outbreak of our fish due to local poachers who do not even care that our property is paled.

       

    The fact is (the reader doesn't take offence) that every one of us is little bit crazy; it means we all have more or less visible mental deviation. My mental deviation is esthetic motivated acting, which should bring the final product called a "garden". Unfortunately on the area smaller then 3500 m2formed with ponds, forest, and devils' hillside reaching the mountaineering terrain (according to the Andráši climbing routes classification - " medium hard, necessary to use arms while ascends, suitable also for alpine tourists without using a rope") including rock areas; with a small cottage (no comments) and originally also with a lot of stinging nettles (nowadays significantly eliminated) I have been trying to create something for 9 years. SOMETHING! SOMETHING!; what could be called on the occasion of a goodwill a "water garden" or a "heathy garden". Every year is dedicated to plants, which we just like the most. Usually the favourite ones are water plants. So the whole summer we look for them, plant them and take care of them. In the winter muskrats realize that such a well-placed pantry is very suitable and they totally raze the water garden. So the next summer is not in token of water plants anymore but for example of creepers (till the moment when 4-years old Akebia tears down the fence), heathers (till the moment when they get overgrow by more and more expanding weed) and so on.

               

And again: a positive prospect - because of our age we won't wait to see. So there is actually no frustration from the uncertain outlook if the final result fills the expectation or not.

    Except the garden it is up to me to take care of our ZOO, because of course the Masters' worries are more important.

Master on the ices Master on the sands

    The Master is significant by hanging somewhere (on sandstone towers or on limestone, hard volcanic, granite rocks or in mountains and in the winter on icefalls) about 6times a week. But he would still like to go more to the mountains to do alpine-skiing, cross-country skiing and in the summer also bicycle riding. However he would have to do sport three times a day (or a night) to manage everything. At the time when the Master doesn't hang or doesn't go anywhere, he is usually very grumpy and for normal life useless. It's obvious from the above mentioned reasons that because of such an overextension he doesn't even have a little time to spear it with our garden, animals and the home-living one (yeah, sometime he has to also go to work). Under these circumstances he have had the chance to only do destructive work (but it was worth it!).
Thanks to the fact that my husband is very rarely in our home, many of my friends have got the imagination about him as about someone unreal.

Master on the calcium

    I do not climb anymore just sometimes and not really well. Because before I made the pack tired, feed the fish, calm down the cat, weed the garden and manage my job, than I lose my sense of humor. And above all together with age have also come certain non-precisions in a functionality of the body. Even that the Master is older; he is in better shape than me.
