NP but Covid-19, sorta...

I would never have really appreciated that video 6 months ago - or even before 2020, 3-4 months ago.  Now I know what a pandemic is, can do.

My mom, who grew up there,  said it was Spanish Flu which got to all sorts of people in the US due to men returning from the war and hit Northwood hard.   But if it came from Kansas, there’s that too.   I really wish I had asked my grandmother about it. She grew up there, too and was about 25 years old and teaching school back then.  She would have known.  There were too many deaths for a couple years.  I can look again when I go up some time this year - I hope.
