Happy Birthday dear Abe!

4 fun facts:

In warm weather, 6th president of the United States, John Quincy Adams customarily went skinny dipping in the Potomac River before dawn.
Have you seen the swimming suits back then? They were more of a joke than showing off your birthday suit anyday!

Abraham Lincoln carried letters, bills and notes around in the tall, black stovepipe hat we so often see him in.
Don't you just love him?!?

William Taft, 27th president of the United States, weighed more than 300 pounds and had a special oversized tub installed in the White House.
Talk about a bubble bath!

Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States, had chronic stomach pain and required 10 to 11 hours of sleep AND an afternoon nap every day.
I think I feel a stomach ache coming on.
