Check out the Blog Archives to read about our cross country motorcycle road trip from MA to CA in the summer of 2011. During that trip we attended the Annual 2011 National Women On Wheels® Ride-In in San Jose CA. Then we just rode. We traveled over 11,000 motorcycle miles in what ever direction we wanted to go for 61 days. We visited friends and family, saw the country, met some amazing people. We made memories we'll never forget. These memories are what THIS BLOG is made of! That was only the beginning. We've been traveling and riding and blogging every since then. Enjoy our stories while we make MORE memories worthy of posting here for your enjoyment.

Ellie - Part 1

Ellie is a WONDERFUL dog who needed a new home.  She belonged to a great family who couldn't keep her any more, so they put out a plea using one of my favorite on line groups called Freecycle.  Freecycle is a Yahoo group where if you have something of value that you don't need any more, you can advertise it to other people who also belong to Freecycle in your area.  


Ellie was advertised for free as exactly what she is.  A well loved, well adjusted, fully trained, 7 year old female dog, spayed, with all shots up to date. 



Cooper and I went to visit Ellie and see how she was in person.  She was EXACTLY what they said she would be.  I couldn't wait to surprise my brother with this wonderful dog.  Cooper liked her right away.  Ellie seemed to like him too.  Though she had no trouble putting Cooper in his place when he got too excitable.  He learns a lot from her when they're together.


We stayed for about 20 minutes or so to let them really become acquainted.  All was great, so I decided it would be fine to put Ellie and Cooper in my little car together.    Ellie sat on the passenger seat and Cooper laid on my lap.  The half hour ride home was fine.  Neither dog had any trouble with the ride.  Ellie didn't mind leaving home at all really.  She showed very MINOR concern.
