Go to Wikipedia and look up your birthday (excluding the year). List three neat facts, two births and one death in your journal, including the year.
June 21
Events
1749 - Halifax, Nova Scotia, founded.
1859 - Italian Independence wars: Battle of Solférino is fought. Witnessed by Henri Dunant, the results were the Geneva Conventions and the Red Cross.
2003 - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth book in J.K. Rowling's hugely popular Harry Potter series, is published.
Births
1919 - Gower Champion, dancer and choreographer (d. 1980)
1982 - Prince William of Wales
Death
1527 - Niccolò Machiavelli, Italian historian and political author (b. 1469)
It's also, appropriately, the pagan feast of Midsummer. HA!
