Location: Baltimore, MD | Hi Dave
I actually just posted on my facebook page...it was almost two years ago this week that we had that amazing Pinkburst benefit. I watched the news break on the bombing while I stood in the Brazil airport, watching helplessly. I recognized immediately that the location of the bombing was right in front of the hotel where you and I stayed. That cafe in the those horrible photos...with the windows blown out...you and I grabbed a bite there.
And of course, the Skinner Antiques headquarters across the street from our hotel, has been stuck behind police tape for a week.
Skinner has graciously donated $1K for each mile of the marathon--so almost 27K being donated to the victims of the attack.
Boston was a 2nd home while I was in school in Providence, and it was so painful to see the suffering. I continue to pray for them all.
I haven't had the hot sauce yet, but I certainly intend to give it a taste! I'll be sure to stop by the patch in Graspop and give you my best!
