The #MonongahMiningDisaster occurred on #ThisDayInHistory in 1907, in the town of #Monongah, #WestVirginia. The mine was overloaded with workers (greed requires speed) when it exploded, killing 362 #miners. The first #FathersDay was observed the following year in tribute to them.
#FathersDay
Grace Golden Clayton suggested to her minister that he honour all fathers at a Sunday service, which he did on 5 July 1908.
Sonora Smart Dodd attempted to establish an official equivalent to Mother's Day for fathers, which was implemented statewide in 1910. It grew from there was established as a federal holiday in 1972.

It' is or was the father's day today in this grey and gloomy country. To celebrate we got up before seven for the firstborn's basketball game, from which thre younher one went pretty straight to her own training.
After lunch I dragged the youth to a local museum #MuseoLeikki because they have a "Transformers - from toys to legend" exhibit that I wanted to see.
Despite the inhuman wakeup time for a definitely-not-a-morning-person, it was a nice day 👍🏻👍🏻

Three good things:
1. My oldest, despite working until 2am, got up and had a Father's Day breakfast with me and the rest of our family. He did promptly go back to bed afterwards but I understand that.
2. My local gym has installed body wash dispensers in each shower cubicle so I don't have to remember to bring some each time I use the showers there.
3. The weather in #Perth may be crap today but people were still out with umbrellas and picnic blankets out at Pinnaroo Memorial Park sharing time with family since passed and the biggest congregation of kangaroos north of Perth Zoo.
"Father’s Day. Ah, the warm glow of parenthood, paternal or maternal. And the chill terror.
Terror? The 40-something son of friends died last month. ... When we heard, my wife Beth and I felt sorrow for those friends. We also felt fear."
