Happy Lief Erikson Day!

October 9th is known as Lief Erickson day.  Interestingly, this date doesn't have any actual significance to Leif Erikson.  It marks the day that the ship Restauration landed on American shores to mark the Nordic organized immigration movement that started in 1825.  Lief Erickson, though, was though to be the first European to set foot on North American shores, not Christopher Columbus.  So please enjoy this video in his honor.
