That was my first impression. The guy was wasted, and ran. Booze or chemicals or both.
Dear Friends,
When I left for work on Wednesday, my two young daughters had never gotten themselves ready for school without help. When I returned home, they had revealed the maturity and strength to do that and much more. While I wandered the woods, frostbitten and wet, my daughters tapped the unseen strength and character to continue forward, to go to school, and care for themselves. Cindy and I are so proud of them.
I would like to thank the New Hampshire State Police, Fish & Game, the Marine Patrol, the Dover Police, the staff of Accent Magazine, the media, and all of the other volunteers that helped reunite me with my family. I am forever in your debt.
Today marks the end of an ordeal that has brought out the best in the face of the worst circumstances and tomorrow brings a new beginning. As I recover from this accident, I am mindful of the job that still needs to be done. The first Congressional District needs a leader. I will continue to listen to the voters of New Hampshire and hope to carry out their will in the United States Congress.
Sincerely,
Gary Dodds
