Visiting Jamestown, Virginia







While at the American Horse Publications Seminar in Williamsburg,Virginia, we took a day trip to the Jamestown National Historical Park where Captain John Smith created the first English Settlement. We wandered around the original site of the barracks, fort and church and the archaeological museum.

That's me standing next to the Pocahontas statue, a Native Indian who married a settler and changed her name to Rebecca.

If you are ever in the area, it's worth the trip! See http://www.nps.gov/jame/index.htm
