Aloha, Ben



The Connecticut Historical Society has a room devoted to displays that will appeal to children.  The history books say that Benjamin Franklin had a sense of humor.  Ben might have had a good giggle about this one.

    He does look as if he's trying to keep a serious face Jack, that little wry smile is a 'dead' giveaway !

    I sometimes wonder if these things are a necessity to interest children...

    Yes, I agree. And if you asked him beforehand if you could so decorate him, I'd guess he'd say "Lei it on me!"

    I'm gonna wash that window so if you come by tomorrow you'll see the truth about snow in Ocala.

    It is funny, but I am not sure these things are useful...

    Ben looks relaxed. Perhaps he's pondering how the ladies will react to his new attire.
