I'll Fly Away........

Not one but two historic things of note for today. Both of which may interest Ms. Brigid over at the Home on the Range blog.

The first, 105 years ago Orville and Wilbur Wright after considerable time and effort managed to get the first self powered, heavier than air machine, off the ground at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The first flight lasted only 12 seconds at an altitude of 10 feet and only covered 120 feet, but no one ever looked back after that.

The second, in 1969 The U.S. Air Force ended Project Blue Book. This was the program of investigating reported sightings of U.F.O.s

Coincidence? I wonder..........-grin-
