FREE WHITEWATER

Daily Bread for 7.13.13

Good morning.

It’s a lovely day in store for Whitewater, with sunny skies and a high of eighty-seven.

Someone sent me a video of a small dog eating a watermelon, and I’ve embedded the video below.

Still, I’ll concede that he is moderately cute, and undeniably happy while enjoying his snack.

1787 – Northwest Territory Established
On this date the Northwest Ordinance was passed by the Continental Congress. The ordinance provided for the administration of the territories and set rules for admission as a state. The Northwest territory included land west of Pennsylvania and Northwest of the Ohio River, which encompassed present day Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, parts of Minnesota and of course Wisconsin.
