CLOUDY, DRIZZLY, 80 DEGREES
A BUSY TWO DAY, SO HAVE MISSED
A DAY OF TELLING YOU MY THOUGHTS
AND Oak RIDGE HISTORY. YESTERDAY
WE HAD TO MAKE A TRIP TO HOME DEPOT
FOR A NEW FILTER FOR THE FRIDGE.
THEN KROGERS AND HOME. DOTTIE ARRIVED
SHORTLY AFTER WE GOT HOME SO SPENT
THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY VISITING
AND PLAYING WITH MAX. THAT MAKES
FOR A GREAT DAY. TODAY WAS LAUNDRY
AND WORKING ON THE FILTER TO GET IT IN RIGHT.
OUR NEW NEIGHBOR, DAWN, CAME OVER AND
BETWEEN HER, TINA AND I WE GOT IT IN.
NOW LOOKING FOR THE “SET” BUTTON. I
JUST LOVE ALL THE NEW, EASY AND UPDATED
APPLIANCES.
WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY AS I REMEMBER
THE GOOD OLD ICE BOX!
AND NOW BACK TO THE BOOK: THE JAPANESE
SOON LEARNED THAT TENNESSEE WAS AT
WAR WITH THEM AS ON AUGUST 6, AND 9, 1945,
THE JAPANESE REALIZED UN A MOST DRAMATIC
MANNER THAT THEY DID INDEED HAVE
A WAR WITH TENNESSEE, AS WELL
AS THE REST OF THE UNITED STATES.
WITH ALL THE LOST LIVES AND DESTRUCTION
THE A-BOMB CAUSED IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE
THAT IT SAVED MANY, MANY, MORE TIMES
THAT AMOUNT OF LIVES. IN THE BUILDING
OF THE BOMB, STARTING WITH THE IDEA
AND ENDING WITH THE END OF THE WAR,
THE PROJECT PUT MANY PEOPLE TO WORK
DURING THE DEPRESSION. AND NO ONE KNEW
WHAT THEY WERE WORKING ON OR WHEN
THEIR PART WAS COMPLETED.
HAVE A SUPER POWERFUL, KIND, FUN,
INTERESTING, AND BLESSED DAY
