Benny and Friends!

Here I am with my Ahno on my first day
at the farm.
My great-grandfather, who was also named Benjamin,
built this fireplace out of fieldstone. My great-great-
grandmother made the rug! And I made a diaper
full of disaster, but hey, I'm just getting started.

Here I am all nekkid in my pool, with
Mumsy and
Grandma. The shade on this pool was essential for
keeping my little white bum from turning pink. Nobody
wanted that to happen.

Here's Mumsy's friend Lori and her baby
Cameron.
Cameron is four months younger than I am, but he has
at least eighty-seven more pounds of hair! What gives?!

Ahno is holding me and Cameron's Grandma
is holding
him. When we all went out shopping, Lori said it was
a redhead convention.

Cameron's sister Eden introduced me to a
cool toy.
You kick it with your feet and it makes noise.
Could there be anything better? Possibly a bunch
of little redheaded children, but we had that too.

Here I am at the Clarion County Fair,
taking in some
ambience in the goat barn.

Later in August, we went to the Hog Show
at the
Venango County Fair. The girl in the pen is
preparing her hog for a "Fitting and Showmanship"
class, where you have to herd your pig around
in a big ring for a judge. Neat.

Ahno is letting me share her celery. I
liked eating
it, but I also liked conducting with it.
