A few morning tasks have been completed, I have brewed a cup of tea and it’s time to settle in here for a little while.

On this date 567 years ago Constantinople fell to the Turks.
67 years ago Norgay Tenzing and Edmund Hilary summited Everest. This did not get mentioned in the newspaper on the day of my birth because no one else knew until they got back to civilization a couple weeks later. Oh well.
Yes, I’m 67 today. Whee!
