Clowning Around

Whether entertaining outside or signing autographs inside, Ronald McDonald is the man of the hour Tuesday night. Visiting the Greencastle McDonald's he puts on a hula-hoop bit in which Emilee Jordan, 10, daughter of Angel Brunning of Greencastle, rates applause. (Banner Graphic/ERIC BERNSEE)

Back inside, Ronald shares a high five with five-year-old Charlee Blocker, daughter of Laura Blocker, Cloverdale, as dozens of youngsters line up to get an autograph or a photo with the famous restaurant clown. (Banner Graphic/ERIC BERNSEE)
