Freedom Baby

Listening to: Temple of the Dog-Temple of the Dog

We're looking after Ryan-dog (his name is Ryan, but I call him Ryan-dog. I like the cadence it has to it) for another while while his regular keeper is down south.

There is an unexplained field near our place, unexplained in that we have yet to figure out why it is there. It has no apparent purpose. It is however large, away from houses and enclosed by gorse, and thus reasonably dog friendly. We discovered it when we were looking after Ryan during the summer.

Its the only place we are comfortable to let him off the leash.........
Its kinda cool to watch something run for no other reason than it likes to and it can.

And there are lots of things for a curious dog to explore
Drainage in this field isn't so good though, and it is quite marshy. Which meant that by the time we left Ryan was quite marshy also.
He took the required bath quite well.....

In other news I have dreamt about trying to find a stolen bike for the last three nights in a row now. Even though at times I am riding the stolen bike while trying to track it down. The bike in question is my old giant. Maybe it is resenting finally being replaced....
