66 years apart. Both of these events happened within the lifetime of someone still young enough to run marathons.

It's amazing to think that it took humans tens of thousands of years to get to the Wright Brothers first flight at #KittyHawk, and then less than sixty-six years after that to land on the Moon.

And this is the anniversary of the #WrightBrothers first flite at #KittyHawk and to commemorate the moment we #quote #WilburWright and back it with a picture of an #Osprey heading into #CampPendleton at #sunset last night. If this #Quotograph speaks to you please repost it.

That little swatch of #Wrightflyer fabric attached to #Marshelicopter #Ingenuity seems to be doing its job as a good luck charm. #Perseverance #aviationhistory #Wrightbrothers #Dayton #Ohiohistory https://mars.nasa.gov/technology/helicopter/status/423/flight-36-preview-by-the-numbers/

Wright Family Home and Cycle Shop
In 1936, Henry Ford purchased the Wright family home and bicycle shop and moved them to Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Mi.There are 5 original Wright bikes remaining. Greenfield Village owns two and one is on loan to the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC.

Seems obvious to me that a city like #dayton -- birthplace of the #wrightbrothers -- would declare the Aviation as the Cocktail of the City.
