    Here is an interesting tidbit I saw on Fox News this morning.  On this date in 1826, we lost our second and third president on the same day within hours of each other.   Monroe died on July 4 of 1831, and Coolidge was born on July 4, 1872.  I had no idea July 4th had such an intriguing tie-in to […]

    This is another tidbit for my Canadian friends. On this date in 1608, Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec City.  My French teacher in high school did her study in Quebec, so I have some affinity for this part of Canada.
