Changes (weather and same-sex marriage) - June 25, 1911 and 2011

Rita's Entry: Sunday June 25,
Sunday school in A. M.  Good  visit.  Mr. Rubee offered offered me $2 per!!!!  Helen here all afternoon.  Too hot to do much.  Played a little.

IN RITA'S DAY: Rita may have felt hot in Iowa, but on June 25, 1911 the state of Kansas was setting records.  It was 114 degrees!  The spring and summer of 1911 was exceptionally hot from the middle of May until the middle of July...

TODAY: Things are heating up in the political arena... The bill to legalize gay marriage passed in New York!  Of course, Iowa legalized it years ago (because it is only fair).
