Stop in for a cup of coffee

We have family ties to the Bamble area in Norway. The family book on Mom's side goes back to 1400 or so. On Dad's side my aunt was able to track 1400 or so names to Norway also. Slide in a bit of Scot/Irish and a tad of Polish but mostly Norway. I love reading about people and events from way back then. Happy Tyr's Day today.

Bill,

Not sure if you have read The Prose Edda by Snorri Sturluson. Hard to read but great old stories of the Pagan Days

I have the book "Heimskringla" by Snorre Sturlason. Interesting reading, it covers at least most of the Viking era. Not read Edda. But I have read some stories when Leif Eirikson went to Vinland, and stayed for some years on the northern tip of Newfoundland. He had obviously been further south too, at least to Long Island, New York.
