I don’t want to sound pessimistic, but I’ve been having a bad run of luck this week.

RE: ...I’ve been having a bad run of luck this week.

Please watch the skies.”

On May 5, 1945, near Bly, Oregon, 26-year-old Elsie Mitchell and five children (ages 11–14) were killed when they discovered and triggered a Japanese “fire balloon” (Fugo) while on a picnic in the Fremont National Forest.”

Google and AI no longer allow me to find the true story of one man who was out walking in California in the 1940s and hit on the head by a fire lantern from Japan. His story was brought back during the time a few years ago when people at celebrations outside were launching sky lanterns and people thought they were UFOs. Tight lipped about them because houses and fields caught fire as they landed. Illegal in most places.

I’ve heard of having “one of those days,”
but they’re beginning to last all week!
