00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:30.160
Oh hi, Patrick, It's Leif Erickson Day. There's a note

7
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.719
Today is National leaf Ericson Day. Now, he was a Viking,

8
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.520
his dad was Eric the Red. Around the year one thousand,

9
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:48.880
Leaf and his crew landed in what today is Canada.

10
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:51.840
They were assailing the Greenland, but they got blown off course,

11
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:54.920
possibly the first Europeans to set foot on North America.

12
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:57.240
Now he named it Vinland because of all the grape

13
00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:59.439
vines that were growing there. Now, it was too late

14
00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:00.960
in the year to try and get back to Greenland,

15
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:02.640
so they just made camp for the winter, then headed

16
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:04.920
back to Norway in the spring. When they got there,

17
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.400
they told everybody all about it. When they hit Norway. Yeah,

18
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.079
the Norwegians. Then they all started checking over to Vinland

19
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:13.879
to check it out or Canada. Now, I know that's

20
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:15.680
cool and all, but how do you celebrate I guess

21
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.040
you go Nordic, you know'd be all Viking. He pickled herring,

22
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:21.799
smoked salmon. Just remember this guy got to America five

23
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:23.680
hundred years before Columbus and the rest of the guys

24
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:26.640

grocery store manager his messenger to the modern world. Stars

35
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:35.759
George Burns, John Denver, and Terry gar All Right, what

36
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:38.639
happened on October the ninth? During the Civil War in

37
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:42.319
eighteen sixty four, the Union cavalry and the Confederate cavalry

38
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:44.960
went at it at the Battle of Thomas Brook in Virginia.

39
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:48.120
Now the Union they whooped up on the rebels. Locals

40
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:51.000

41
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:52.960
on their horses just turned till and ran with the

42
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:56.360
Union's chasing them. Now, it was not a significant battle

43
00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:58.680
at all, but what makes it interesting and the two

44
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:01.319
officers that were in charge, they were moved roommates back

45
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.479
