Happy July 4th judith,

The entire above play can be found on youtube as well. The first half is hilarious, but this particular scene is really funny when Pres Adams repeats 'they'll run their quills through it'...have visited Pres Jefferson's home Monticello--our son wouldn't leave(then 11yrs old) until he'd walked the mi to and from Jefferson's grave. He currently writes history textbooks.

When still single, I'd lived for a few years in Philly and took excursions down to Independence hall, the Liberty Bell, Betsy Ross's tiny house--returned w/our children--it's a truly amazing experience to stand there and realize that's where it all began 234yrs ago.

Monticello is an architecural master piece! So neat to hear about your history writing son. You make me aware that I must get down to Philadelphia while I am still living the northeast!!
