rosa_heartlilyPCC started at 7.30pm and didn't finish until after 9.30pm. Then there was packing up and getting home... It's a great group. People who are new always express surprise at how well we work together. Because you know Christians don't work well together, right? :D
I got a compliment on my Coast dress! Which I have discovered has pockets!!! It is THE most perfect dress I have ever owned and I will wear it until it literally falls apart.
I watched the next episode of Connections during my dinner time. How money led to the H bomb - a test was developed to prove the purity of gold, which then became a common method of exchange (rather than bartering) leading to an increase in trade and more ships that needed a way to navigate, so they used the stars and compasses and learned to predict the weather; someone investigating magnatism discovered electricity and that brought all the threads together in RADAR; and someone invented a cloud-making machine (only tiny wisps) and fired an x-ray through it, splitting an atom in the process, which led to the atomic bomb.
I'm so glad I've rediscovered the series and that it's all making sense to me, now! I do remember this series was how I first learned about Galileo and Newton, and possibly Columbus...?
OK, time for bed.
