Carver's Northward Quest and Oregon River Dream
Jonathan Carver, son of a British officer, left Boston in 1766 to trace a Missouri branch toward the Oregon or River of the West. He imagined explorers ascending the river to Behring Strait junctions, envisioning a passage to the Straits of Anlan and the Pacific, though he died before the voyage. His later words urged successors to bless the pioneer who first showed the path.

Ancient Cypress Compare Ages Across Civilizations
Experts in Louisiana place a cypress at about 2500 years old with context tying its age to events from Christ’s birth and Columbus. They note much older trees exist, including the Santa Maria del Tule cypress in Mexico at 5000 to 6000 years and some California redwoods around 43000 years. The Mexcian tree predates Abraham, and the Louisiana tree predates Christ.
