Do you, like me, enjoy learning new things daily? If you’ve read my blog, you know one of the pastimes I enjoy is discovering new facts and interesting pieces of history.
I like to share intriguing stories from our local newspaper the San Jose Mercury News, as well as from some of my favorite print and online magazines Mental Floss, the National Geographic Society or Smithsonian Magazine. Sometimes great finds are located at History Orb and Wikipedia. Other times articles or facts are found online at The History Place, Brainy History,or Dates In History.
These events for today’s blog post are primarily from The People History.
While these interesting items are intriguing, they have nothing to do with my real estate business, helping families buy and sell Silicon Valley dream homes for sale in San Jose, Cupertino and Saratoga. They just add fun and fascination to life.
Here are today’s Three Thrilling Tales That Happened in History on June 29.
- 1974 – Mikhail Baryshnikov defects from the Soviet Union to Canada while on tour with the Kirov Ballet.
- 1975 – Steve Wozniak tested his first prototype of Apple I computer.
- 2007 – Apple Inc. releases its first mobile phone, the iPhone.
Feel free to pass this on to friends and family.
I look forward to speaking with you again soon. Remember … when you and the people you care about need help with buying, selling and investing in homes … Just Call 408-252-8900.
