I was about 1 block NE of the Finish line on my way to meet my wife. She had just finished and was going through the finisher chute. My wife Marie. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1333.photobucket.com/albums/w621/rickruetten/boston/IMG_6679_zps67961101.jpg) Krystal, Sean, Martin & Lingzi ![[Linked Image]](http://i1333.photobucket.com/albums/w621/rickruetten/boston/ss-130711-bombing-victims_ss_full_zpsc70c3b72.jpg)

At home watching Fox news when it happened.
Rick, sounds like you and the wife/family were way too close to the action!

Yes we were. I'll tell you the story at 'Fest. It still haunts.
We did not get a scratch. Pray for those who did.
We're going back again this weekend, Marie runs, I cheer. It'll be fine.

I don't have a clue, but I remember I was washing the truck in the driveway when Mt. St. Helens touched off. Heard it clear down in Central Oregon.

shist, that was too close for comfort, glad you and your loved ones weren't closer. I was about 1 block NE of the Finish line on my way to meet my wife. She had just finished and was going through the finisher chute. My wife Marie.
