Lonely Man Waits for Englebergs to Arrive Home
By "Fire Ant" Becky, Cub Reporter
The afternoon of Sunday August 20, 2006 "Bread Dip" Bixby waited in the Orr's yard for the arrival of his missed pal, Engleberg. "Bread Dip" sat with "Fire Ant" awaiting his arrival. As "Fire Ant" came up with other stories for "The Buzzard," Bread Dip sat there looking hopefully down the road waiting for the vroooooom of Engleberg's Harley.
"He looks like a lost puppy out there on the lawn, " said Mary Orr. We were waiting and waiting, and every once in awhile we could hear other motorcycles coming down the road.This made Bread Dip very upset when they passed. After a few hours of waiting and a few beers later, we decided to make a WELCOME HOME sign on Engleberg's driveway.
"Bread Dip's" youngest bagel came out with her chalk and made a sign on Engleberg's driveway with the help of "Fire Ant."
We just kept on waiting, waiting and waiting. No Engleberg in sight. After awhile Engleberg's wife decided to join the festivities. "Bread Dip" and Mrs. Engleberg were chatting away, when "Fire Ant" heard something. It was the sweet sound of a Harley! "Bread Dip" jumped out of his chair with excitement and ran onto Skyline View Drive. Snapping pictures as the Engleberg's returned from their amazing ride.
Once Engleberg and Orr Jr. got off the Harley, "Bread Dip" gave Engleberg a kiss. "After waiting a few hours to see my buddy ride in on his Harley....it touched me very much. They did this for all of us. They did it for America, " said Bread Dip as he wiped a tear away from his eye.
