Well...it went like this: I called Sis to drive me later in the day to Bro’s house to get the bike after which I planned on treating her and BIL for dinner. It was still early when I called, so I left a message. Then I got my backpack and water bottles and invited Penny to go for a hike, to which she responded with joy.
Halfway to our favorite hiking trail, Sis called on my cell phone and said she had a rehearsal this afternoon, so could we instead go to our favorite Irish Pub for their Breakfast Brunch and then proceed to Bro’s after a leisurely Breakfast Buffet and Irish music.
So I banged a Yuwie (Bostonese for “Made a U-Turn”) and headed home to get my helmet and Leather Jacket. Penny immediately knew that the hike had been canceled and took umbrage. She was not happy, so I gave her a bacon strip when we got home and headed out.
The Irish band consisted of one unamplified guitar and not one, but TWO penny whistles. It was truly awful! But the food was phenomenal.
Then Sis and BIL dropped me off at my Bro’s and Blue started up with barely a kiss on the ignition switch. The front tire was a little soft, so Bro filled it up, checked the tire pressure and cleaned my windshield.
And then I rode home through the lovely rolling hills of New England farm country.
And now Blue is home.
And Penny went for a walk with me afterwards.
So now I have my Trailer, My Harley, My Guitar, and my Pit Bull.
Even though I was born in Boston, I think I have become a Redneck! :-)

Contentment....
Yay! Blue is back! Now things will be all better. As soon as Penny isn’t pouting about missing her hike. LOL
