Unbelievable!
Well, I guess we all knew that this day was coming. They’ve tried a few times before, but they did it this time. They set off explosions on the crowded sidewalks of the Boston Marathon finish line. The event that everyone here looks forward to every year. A crazy fun time in downtown Boston where everyone enjoys the ambiance of a world class sporting event with over 27,000 participants. It’s held on a day that honors the first battle of the revolution which was fought only a few miles from where this bombing took place.
The perps haven’t been caught yet, the investigation is just starting. I think my friend from Montreal who called me early this morning put it best, “they picked the wrong town to f… with”.
My thoughts are with all those who were injured, the families of those killed, all who witnessed the horror and anyone who spent the afternoon worrying about someone’s well being.
I’ve read the same quote from Charlotte Hartwig of Salem, Ore., running in her sixth Boston, where she says, “I don’t know if I’ll come back again”. Charlotte, I think that’s exactly what they want. The best thing for all of us to do is come back.
