The Life and Times of Bear Rhode

Cassy and I took Bear to Kaena Point (North Shore side) for some exercise and fun in the sun. This is the best place, in my opinion, to take a dog and let them run around as they please. My advice is to bring the following items: Bikes, surf shorts, towels, a light lunch, backpack, camera and food/water for the dogs. Also, don't forget a bowl of some sort for the dog's water....like we did. Here, Bear eyeing out some guys in Wahiawa. Finally, we made it to our destination. A gorgeous day with blue skies and an empty parking lot. An empty parking lot could spell either one of two things: 1) Nobody on the path and you can skinny dip with your wife or 2) Your car is going to get broken into by the Freedom Fighters that live one beach over. Neither 1 or 2 happened today......thanks to Cassy!

Cassy took the lead as Bear followed close behind. Mountain view on one side of the trail and ocean view on the other. So lucky we live in Hawaii.

About 20 minutes of this guy huffing and puffing down the trail, we made it to our final destination. He is exhausted and ready for some aqua.

Right before this picture was taken, Bear did a dive off the top of a ledge. I swear it looked just like Rodney Dangerfield's dive off the diving boards in "Back To School". Cassy wasn't too impressed with the dive and Bear replied, "No respect!".

Your dog(s) need to be here. Completely secluded so Bear ditched his leash and I ditched my clothes.

Can't wait until I get this cast off of my leg so I can get back to Kaena Point. Look at the mountains, sky, and ocean.....life is good.

Kaena Point is like Chuck E. Cheeses for dogs. Bear doing his best Shawshank Redemption impersonation (sanz the human waste).
