Sleeping with John Adams...

You have caused some marital discord as my husband has chaffed just a little as I have shared our bed with our founding fathers and their views. But the discussions we have engaged in have been stimulating and interesting. I can't wait to put geographical locations with the images and emotions I have in my head regarding these historical connections. Thursday can't come soon enough...
