One of Carol's daughters treated the sole boy child to a green bagel sandwich, to celebrate his 25% Irish side on Saint Patrick's Day (2008). Apparently he debated about this whole idea when the food arrived.

Taken in Pittsburgh's Market Square area before the 2008 Saint Patrick's Parade. Somehow this photograph helped to lead in taking a few "leg shots" of people that day.

Ben Franklin coining the phrase "A penny saved is a penny earned" is, reportedly, what lead to the Philly tradition, practiced by residents and tourists alike, of tossing a coin onto his grave site - for some kind of luck. Apparently any coin will do even though the phrase is about pennies. The change is collected every evening by Christ Church Burial Grounds staff.</b>

Not certain but these may be matching sets: headstones and foot stones. The smaller ones, which would be the footstones, are similar in style to the larger ones.
