He's a Swede what would you expect him to say or find in Oklahoma?hurleyjd":3nu2fask said:True Grit Farms":3nu2fask said:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leif_Eriksonhurleyjd":3nu2fask said:Columbus discovered America in 1492. 449 years later Hurleyjd discovered America about 5 miles South of Yantis Texas. On this day 77 years later by good health and good luck I am still going not as strong as in the past. Never planned on any thing long term just took each day as it came and tried to make the best of it.
Being of Norwegian decent I beg to differ on the discovery of America. 77 years is a big number, congratulations.
My guess is that America was discovered and inhabited much sooner than when either the Vikings or Columbus came here. I think Columbus goal was to prove that you could sail west and go around the globe Well to the Indies without going overland. The belief by some at that time was the earth was flat and if you sailed further enough you would fall off of the edge and never to be seen again. There was a stone found in Oklahoma called the Heavner stone (http://newsok.com/article/5416047))because where it was found.
