Watertown Bounces Back
Childhood innocence 1 just a block away from where police captured the alleged 2 marathon bomber 3.
Lemonade costs 50 cents a cup, but customers have been donating lots of bills. “People give us extra tips because they say we're cute," said eight-year-old Serena Calix.
Not to mention the profits go to the One Fund for victims of the double bombings. “That's a really good thing that we are doing because they should really get better," said Eva Kelleher, age nine.
Mom Kendra Foley says this is a lot different than nearly 24 hours of neighborhood lockdown here in Watertown, when the suspect was at large. “The best we could do was pretend it was winter. A winter indoor day. We baked muffins and cupcakes and made play-dough," she said.
After a massive manhunt, police found Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, hiding in a boat in the backyard of someone's home. Lauren Kelleher's house backs up to it. “Sometimes I'll run out to the store and I'll leave the front door open because I'm coming right back and I'll think what if one of the kids can't get in because they forgot their key, but I think now I'll be locking the door more," she said.
Watertown residents stopped a Walmart from being built there. They wanted the community to keep its small town charm and quiet streets.
The quiet was shattered Thursday and Friday with gunfire and explosions. This neighborhood always was closely knit, but residents say they now share a bond of a terrifying time that is now behind them.
