Jordan's Point, Virginia: Archaeology in Perspective, Prehistoric to Modern TimesJordan's Point, a nearly triangular promontory in the James River, is situated in Prince George County, just east of the confluence of the James and Appomattox Rivers. A broad terrace overlooking the James, Jordan's Point is bounded by small streams, tidal marshes, and protective uplands that rise to a height of 100 feet or more. In 1607, when the first European colonists saw Jordan's Point, it was graced by the homes and cleared fields of natives

Jordan's Point, a nearly triangular promontory in the James River, is situated in Prince George County, just east of the confluence of the James and Appomattox Rivers. A broad terrace overlooking the James, Jordan's Point is bounded by small streams, tidal marshes, and protective uplands that rise to a height of 100 feet or more. In 1607, when the first European colonists saw Jordan's Point, it was graced by the homes and cleared fields of natives they would call the Weyanoke. Virginia colonist Samuel Jordan established a community called Jordan's Journey around 1621, giving his name to what became known as Jordan's Point.

In time, the settlement became a hub of social and political life. By 1660, Jordan's Point had come into the possession of the Blands, one of England's most important mercantile families. They leased their property to one or more of their agents, usually merchants and mariners involved in inter-colonial trade. Richard Bland I and his descendants developed Jordan's Point into a family seat and working plantation they retained until after the Civil War. At Jordan's Point enslaved men, women, and children toiled in the fields, enabling the Blands to prosper. Richard Bland IV went on to become a distinguished American patriot, and one of his sons became a physician.

Featuring more than one hundred photos and illustrations, most in color, and intended for a general reader, Jordan's Point, Virginia: Archaeology in Perspective, Prehistoric to Modern Times tells the story of Jordan's Point, which spans thousands of years, through the cultural features that archaeologists have unearthed there. This is a book that will attract readers interested in Native American studies, Virginia and colonial history, and archaeology.

One of the best-rated consumer sunscreens
Sun protection factor: 30 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I tend to analyze, no, overanalyze nearly every purchase I make. Sunscreen is no different. In fact, I'd say its one of those things you really shouldn't slack on... i mean Afterall, it's protecting the largest human organ! All of my in-depth reviews indicate that this was one of the top sunscreens to purchase due to its overall efficacy and purity of chemicals used in it. All of that said - I really enjoy using it. It smells absolutely fantastic and makes me feel like I'm on vacation even if I'm just a couple miles from home. The application is extremely air-light, non oily, and it doesn't even feel like I'm wearing it. It didn't stain my clothing or rub off on anything. The spray comes out pretty lightly, as in you won't empty half the bottle over a few moments of depressing the button. Fantastic sunscreen and I will absolutely keep purchasing this.

My Fave Sunscreen
Sun protection factor: 50 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 2)
I love this sunscreen. I bike ride a lot in the summer and I always bring sunscreen with me because I sweat and need to reapply. If I use a cream, my hands end up wet or greasy and I'm holding the handlbars, etc. So, using a spray is way better for me. I loooooooove the smell of this stuff. It smells of summer! The spray makes it easy to get my back while at the beach and while it's not insanely waterproof, it's certainly water resistant and lasts a long time. I like the SPF 50, because less isn't enough for me. They say going higher than 50 isn't any better, so I stick with 50 as my "go to." Buying the duo, as sold here, makes it a good value. Buying this product at a local drug store would cost twice as much. I easily go through both cans in a single summer.

IT WORKS
Style: SPF 50
I used this on my trip to Jamaica and it worked great. I was in the sun for hours and it kept me from getting any lines. I did reapply after going in the water and when I was feeling really hot. However, I did get burned on the top of my feet as the sand was all over them so I couldn't put sunscreen on them. Lesson learned put lots of sunscreen on your feet prior to arriving to the beach. It does stay on slightly when you go in water. You will see a faint white cast on your skin, but nothing extremely noticeable. Otherwise it rubs in really well and there is no white cast, (only after you go in water will you notice it slightly). If your main purpose is to protect your skin, then this is your friend. It's reef safe and does have safer active ingredients that I feel more comfortable using on my skin. Very happy. I used about 3/4 of the bottle for 3 days of use, this includes reapply applications. So if you have a family you may need to take more than one bottle for a long trip and it's a bit more pricey, but better ingredients typically do cost more.
