How does one go nearly 10 years without seeing his family, or coming back once finding out your wife had a stroke. Nothing and I do mean nothing is that important to keep someone away like that. I have so much respect for poor Deborah. I don’t know if I find her sufficient or lacking in strength. But, she definitely handled her life differently than I would like to think I would have.

It amazes me how men think they were/are so superior to women and yet Ben cannot go 6 months away from his wife without being unfaithful? He needed to be taken care of by yet another woman. And men are the superior sex. Lol.

Pretty cool that Ben Franklin formed a “Cajun Navy” of his times.
Not cool, that historians kept things from the public’s eye to protect Ben’s reputation.
