A crisp, sunny November day.
And it's Friday! Time for another Random Facts Friday.
Give your mind a break and see if you know these already...
1. It is hunting season in Ohio. Most know about deer and turkey. Did you also know Ohio has hunting/trapping seasons for fox, raccoon, skunk, opossum, weasel, mink, muskrat, coyotes, wild boars, beaver, and river otter? See Ohio Department of Natural Resources for details.
2. Lactose, the sugar found naturally in milk, occurs rather rarely in nature. In fact, it can’t be found anywhere else except in forsythia flowers and a few tropical shrubs. (Thanks to someone who reads my blog and sent this in for a Random Fact!)
3. The largest commercial building constructed of bamboo is on the island of Bali. It is a chocolate factory made from more than 3,000 bamboo poles and is 3 stories high. The factory is 23,000 square feet under roof.
4. About 100 years ago, half of U.S. residents had blue eyes. Nowadays only 1 in 6 does.
