At the Boar’s Nest, there were two gals in wedding dresses waiting for their grooms to show up. Bo was pacing back and forth. Nancy walked over to his and put a hand on his shoulder. Bo pulled it off. He looked into his wife’s eyes. “Something’s wrong, I can feel it,” Bo told Nancy.

“Why would they be late for their own wedding…especially this late? They’re not going to show up are they?” Nancy asked.

“You know, Jess wouldn’t miss this day for anything in the world.”

“I know, that’s what’s bugging me. My son wants to get married.”

“Yeah, he does. He’s loved Laurel forever and now wants to show everyone just how much.” Bo snapped his fingers. “Look, you and the girls keep the crowd busy. Get Laurel and Paige to do some of their dances that they love to do so much. I’m taking Essy, Jo and Lilly-Rose. We’re goanna look for the boys.”

“Alright, we’ll work on it. What do you think is going on, Bo?”

“I don’t know but I’m goanna find out.”

Over in Tennessee, the boys had just woken up. They were both tied to chairs. Peggy and Tamara went to their sides almost immediately. Jose and Jesse were not impressed. They wanted to be at their wedding.

“Hurry up you goof, we’re going to be late for our own wedding,” Jesse called upstairs. Jose ran out with one shoe on his foot, trying to put the other one on. Jesse shook his head. “Quit turning into me!”

“Yeah, yeah—how did you get dressed so fast?” Jose questioned. Jesse smiled.

“It’s all in the hand eye coordination. That and I didn’t get changed into my PJ’s.”

“Alright, it is written all over my face! I am nervous.”

“Well that much I can see. Why you’re nervous I don’t know.”

“Well, I’m getting married and leaving Hazzard…in that order.” Jesse shook his head. “I don’t why you’re not nervous. You’re goanna run a farm by yourself.”

“Hello, I have a wife.”

“Not yet you don’t. What makes you think she’ll be out there plowing with you?”

“She doesn’t have to.”

“I see.”

“Laurel isn’t afraid of a little hard work though.”

Jesse looked at Bo sitting there reading the paper, the funnies of course. He was laughing away as he drank his coffee. Bo always did love a little humor in the morning. As he saw Jesse, he handed him the paper and pointed to the one he liked the most. Jesse chuckled with him.

“Hey Jesse, are you nervous yet?” Bo asked his son. Jesse shook his head. He sat down to breakfast with his father. This would be the last time they would have breakfast together in a long time. Pretty sad ain’t it? Think about a Hazzard without a Bo.

When Luke left, Bo thought Hazzard wouldn’t be the same. Hazzard to him was Luke and his many adventures. When Bo got the farm, he was surprised. How could he even amount to his Uncle Jesse? The man was wise and kind. He wasn’t half as reckless as Bo felt. But sure enough, Bo lived up to his promise with his Uncle Jesse. He would become a stronger man and control his temper. Bo would look for the right things to say.

Daisy and Luke were calling their younger cousin for advice. Bo always got a kick out of it but he stayed serious…as much as he could that is. Daisy would race him all the time. They still had fun together. Luke couldn’t visit a lot at first but soon he was around pretty often.

Well, Laurel and Paige got up that morning. They looked at their room. “You do realize this is the last time we’re goanna actually sleep in the same room together?” Paige asked her sister. Laurel laughed. She stretched and looked out into the dark horizon that was portrayed through her window.

“You know, I was so excited about getting married,” Laurel answered. She looked at the picture sitting on the mantle in her room. It was of Jose, Jesse, Paige and herself. “Now I wonder if I’m ready.”

“Oh come on, you drive as good as a Duke.”

“This is true.”

“You and Jesse were in archery class together, you got that part down. Besides, you and Jess are always finishing each other’s sentences. You have the same likes and dislikes.”

“I know and he was my first kiss when I was four. I love him…I just wonder if he feels as nervous as I do. I’m afraid I won’t make a good wife. I’m afraid of the D word.”

“Divorce?”

“Yeah, I don’t want to marry a million and three guys. I want this one to be long-lasting.”

“I know what you mean. I was frightened about that. You know what Jesse told me?”

“Jesse gave you advice.”

After hiding The General Lee, the boys walked over to the barn. Yep, they’re about to go on yet another adventure. Jose and Jesse looked at the red painted barn. There were two men in front of there sitting in chairs. “You want to take a crack at making the plan or shall I?” Jose asked.

“We’re going behind the main house and over to the barn. I know there has to be some rope somewhere around here. It’s a farm,” Jesse whispered.

“Good plan,” Jose whispered back. They snuck around the house. As they approached the barn sure enough, they found some rope. Jesse made a lasso and swung it over his head. “What are you doing?”

“Come on, I may be in the computer generation but I still know what being a cowboy is all about.” Jose smiled as Jesse threw up the rope. He hit a board that had been left out on the top of the barn.

“Nice shot but you couldn’t do that twice.”
