Good morning, Whitewater
It’s the first Tuesday in November.
There is no public meeting to be found anywhere in the City of Whitewater today — there is only the right and necessary power of citizens to choose their representatives.
No one stands in your way, or decides for you.
Far more than one-hundred million across the continent will vote, this election. This, more than what comes after, is the measure of our strength.
Why pass this by?
The National Weather Service forecast calls for a sunny day with a high temperature of 73 degrees, almost identical to yesterday. The Farmers’ Almanac begins a new prediction series with a forecast for “Dry and Cold” conditions.
Yesterday’s better prediction: NWS — it wasn’t stormy at all.
In Wisconsin history on this date, in 1909, from the Wisconsin Historical Society, offers a proud moment in Wisconsin industry: the Nation’s First Commercially Built Airplane:
On this date in Beloit, a plane was assembled and built by Wisconsin’s first pilot, Arthur P. Warner. This self-taught pilot was the 11th in the U.S. to fly a powered aircraft and the first in the U.S. to buy an aircraft for business use. Warner used it to publicize his automotive products.
