Busy Ben

Violet and Mitzi wonder why Benjamin Franklin has been standing by the mailbox for the longest time.
 

Mitzi asks Mr. Franklin if there is anything she can help him with.
 

Benjamin Franklin shares that on this day in 1737, he became the first postmaster of Philadelphia.  He just wanted to revisit the past for a few minutes.
 

But then, Ben admits, he started thinking about what he should invent next.
The Franklin Stove and bifocals have already be invented...by him.
Hmm...
 
It was a day to remember a Great American.
