I have to admit that my mind was elsewhere also. We had no sooner gotten to Manchester than I received a phone call from my daughter. My administrative aide's son and his girlfriend had been attacked by a gang, severely beaten, dumped on the side of the road, and then shot execution style.
If it weren't for the absolute beautify of the town and Hildene, I would probably have lost it.
