Interesting. It is unusual for Budd Wilson and Dan Campbell to be giving tours of the mansion, etc. Isn't it?

I think Budd will be giving a tour of the glassworks.

 

[Ariadne]

I'll be going. It should be interesting.

The last time I talked to Dan (he's my cousin), he described a lot about his job at the Batsto Mansion, but he didn't mention mansion tours. Maybe this is a special thing for the meeting. He did have a lot of interesting stories about the mansion, though.

 

[Ben Ruset]

I think I met Dan. He's the new mansion caretaker, correct?

He's pretty awesome.
