Hunsford?

Will stuff happen at Hunsford this chapter?  I'm curious  :)
__________________________
4:19 p.m.  Chapter 28's just four pages again!

4:20 p.m.  Or will this just be Elizabeth's stream of consciousness during the ride?  Remember, it's a novel, Austen's got enough room for whatever she wants  :)

4:23 p.m.  It's not the ride.  But Collins points out "the neatness of the entrance," just as Tom praised his own house in the first chapter of "Gatsby"  :)

4:30 p.m.  Done.  Okay, so now she's built up much towards the dinner at Rosings the next day ... either that's where this volume will really start, or she's setting us up for an anticlimax  :)  We'll find out tomorrow---
