"Always two there are. No more, no less. A master and an apprentice."

After a long week of squeezing it all in, all I could think of yesterday during the last few countdown hours of work was getting out on a nice long trail ride with JD. That all changed when the sun came up this morning. The crisp, cool air combined with the golden sunrise and blue skies slowed my clock. After days and days of up early, rush out, hustle at work, rush to get out to get a ride in, rush home, rinse & repeat, Sunday has greeted me like a better version of a Lionel Ritchie song. There would be no rush today.

Meet Benjamin.

H. is in the midst of 3 nights in a row and didn't get much sleep with the new puppy in the house yesterday. So sticking close to home and letting the pup run off some pent up energy while she sleeps sounded better than driving an hour to a trail. Better to enjoy some low key time at home with the pups this morning, then head out back for some trail time with JD, than waste any more time in a car this week.

Circus dog in the making.

Attack!

Teaching the pup how to guard the bike.

So while H. sleeps, we're playing out in the sun. JD is an awesome big brother to the new puppy. The new puppy is enthralled with JD. So far it's win-win. After swapping from commuter gear to trail gear, I took full liberty of my unsupervised puppy time and started the pup's training off right - follow the bike. He's a quick study. Maybe we'll get him on the trail sooner rather than later.
