An Automotive History Bit:
The Ford Mustang was officially unveiled by Henry Ford II at the World’s Fair in Flushing Meadows, New York, on this day in 1964. That same day, the new car also debuted in Ford showrooms across America and almost 22,000 Mustangs were immediately snapped up by buyers. Named for a World War II fighter plane, the Mustang was the first of a type of vehicle that came to be known as a “pony car.” Ford sold more than 400,000 Mustangs within its first year of production. The first model carried a manufacturer's suggested list price of $2,368.

BTW, eggs were $3.99 to $5.99 per dozen today, and they had tons of them. We can probably check "reduce price of eggs" off Trump's "to do" list.
My husband got to visit the Akan Ainu village yesterday. I love owls (have art and statues all over my house), and the owl is seen as the symbol of knowledge and wisdom in the Ainu culture.
So he bought an owl wood sculpture for me as a birthday present, and had the carver engrave the date on the bottom. 🥰
I'm hoping to feel well enough tomorrow to make our Sapporo excursion. 🤞
