History nuggets

Here's something fun for those who enjoy varied historical tit-bits, courtesy of Linda at the Markeroni Blog:

The History Nugget meme is a place to write about history. All entries are welcome, whether you write about a photograph you took or want to enter a full-blown article. The only “rule” is that it has to be about the past in some way.

Previous entries include:

Juan Flaco Brown by AmberLee.

Happy Groundhog Day by Petrini1

The First Drawings of the Moon by Kristin.

Reuel Colt Gridley by AmberLee
