A Sad Return to Boston

The Boston Marathon, which is one of the most beloved marathons in the world, ended in tragedy on Monday. Even for those of us who are not runners the marathon is a point of pride & an occasion of celebration. This is a tragic day for all Bostonians as well as for the many dedicated runners who visit here every year from all across the country & around the world. It is for me a very sad home coming indeed. My heart goes out to all that have been so tragically touched by this event.

  1. Sally, Yes, I can imagine how sad the town feels right now, yet the intrepid spirit of the people rises up. Our hope will not be intimidated by those who harm others.

  2. Hi,Sally
    Yes, it is very sad. The news is on air many times, here in Japan too. I was very shocked to see the TV news.
