Missed seeing him

Rico was in Massachusetts this week, and thus missed the Democratic candidates' swing through eastern Pennsylvania. Not that he would have gone to the front door to see Hillary, but seeing Barack would only have required crossing the street:
"In Wynnewood, several thousand supporters lined the tracks for the first stop on his daylong whistle-stop tour aboard a royal blue train car that pulled out of Philadelphia in late morning."

Rico says he's sorry he missed Obama; one of his treasured childhood memories is having seen JFK speak at the airport in Wilmington, back in 1960. (Yes, Rico was only eight at the time, but his long-term memory is fine, thank you.)
