Aloha Friday - Historical Figures


Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday. In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day to take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So, on Fridays we can take it easy on blog posting, too.

I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response. If you’d like to participate, visit An Island Life where you can link up with your own question and also visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

Tell me which historical figure (past or present) you would like to meet

I would like to have met Benjamin Franklin. He seemed to be not only smart, but charismatic and very well liked. And, I've read that he was quite fond of the young ladies. I bet he was a real character!

Hmmm....I think I would love to meet Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Pretty fitting considering the timing for women's rights now.

I'm honestly not sure.

Maybe George, so he can see the happenings of the day.
