Are you looking for an adventure? This might interest you.
I stumbled upon these short articles in the archives of the Sacramento Daily Union newspaper from 1870 while researching another subject. I hope you find it intriguing as I do.
From 6 October 1870
and 13 October 1870
and from 16 November 1870
Because I love old maps and was always fascinated by the early maps depicting California as an island -
California As An Island In Maps
It would be easy to imagine early ships traveling north in the Gulf of California looking for a sea route.
I have found three interesting internet posts about the tale of the lost ship.
The Lost Ship In The Desert
Lost Ship Of The Desert
The Lost Viking Ship Of The Desert
I live too far away to take on this adventure and am humbly offering it up to others who may want to make their mark in history by finding the lost ship full of Spanish pearls or Viking treasure.
Ready, set, go!
