So Maura and Dave are riding their bikes. It's spring in January- no coats, no mittens, no cumbersome hats, just the wind blowing through their hair as they race across the driveway. Peaceful and fun.
Suddenly, out of nowhere there comes a renegade, threateningly wielding his horse at them."Not so fast " he yells. Maura and Dave glance at each other and laugh. When you see something 3 feet tall, with a horse on a stick, a plastic leather coat and rubber boots.... well, it's just not awe inspiring. Plus, it's January and dude is wearing shorts. "Get out of our way" they yell as they push on through.
He slumps as they go past. But he is quick to realize that they will be coming through again.....this time he goes for the full body sacrifice and throws himself in their path. Again, they show great disrespect as they fly past him. 
Shaken, but not stirred, he turns to the one person he can count on to do his bidding, his noble dog, Saff.
Life is good.
