Today Mike took Char, Richard, Vera, Jan and me to The History Center in Orlando to see Jim Henson’s Fantastic World a Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition. We saw various puppets including Kermit the Frog and Bert and Ernie. We watched some early commercials and looked at drawings, cartoons and some experimental films. It was a lot of fun and each of us enjoyed lots of smiles and laughter. Sorry but we were not allowed to take pictures while in The History Center.

Once we were outside we did find time for a few pictures. You can tell by the big smile on this alligator that he didn’t mind having us on his back.

Later we stopped at Smokey Bones restaurant on the way home for a relaxing dinner.
