Nothin special, in terms of photography anyway, but this is the first bloom on our rhododendrons this year.
In 1808 the sun was observed to turn brick-red near Skerninge in Sweden. On the western horizon, a great number of round dark brown bodies appeared, seemingly the size of a hat crown. They passed overhead and disappeared on the eastern horizon. The procession lasted two hours. Some fell, and a 'soapy and jellied' film, which soon dried and vanished, was found on the ground. This was reported in the Transactions of the Swedish Academy of Sciences (1808-215) by A. Acharius.
And in 1866, Charles Elmer Hires invented root beer.
