The Blakeley formation consists of alternating sequence of coarse sandstones, mudstones, and sub-rounded/brecciated conglomerates. The formation strikes 269°, and dips 41°N. The sandstone and mudstone members are typically 30-50cm thick. The sandstones are immature poorly sorted greywacke, and the mudstones
Deer, turkey, moose, rabbit, skunk raccoon, swan, and duck. What do all of these have in common? They are all animals, but more importantly, they were all hunted in colonial times. Today I will show you hunting in colonial times. We are going to look at this in a couple different ways. First we will look at how people in this time hunted. Then we will look at what they hunted, and finally we will look at the additional uses of the animals they hunted.

Crossing over rivers, rolling hills, endless plains, and mountain passes to finally reach a salvation with huge plots of land with boundless capabilities is what many Americans did while passing through the Oregon Trail. The trail allowed many Americans to have an opportunity to prosper, but there were many dangers and perils that they would have to face. The motivation to travel the Oregon Trail was so strong because it allowed endless possibilities for Americans to escape debt, start businesses, farm large sums of land, and for Manifest Destiny.

North Carolina colony with it 's extended ocean line, valuable natural resources, and temperate climate, make it very valuable for England. The extended coastline stretches for many miles and could be used for a port receiving cargo and passenger ships from the mainland. The existence of the mountains provides the colony with a decent amount of natural resources. The climate is very good for the agricultural development of the colony. All these factors make a North Carolina colony a great place to consider for the British empire.
The colors, they are so fascinating to this work of art that the weather created. The work of art was mad by water on a cotton plantation back in the 1800s. Providence Canyon has an amazing scenery with many different colors on the walls of the canyon. Every time it rained on the cotton field the water would form a huge ditch or trench that kept expanding. In the 1850s the ditches grew up to 5 feet. This park can grab tourist's attention and bring visitors into our state. It has 43 colors of sand that can be a beautiful site to see. It has a camping spot where you can camp and see how beautiful it looks at night. Providence Canyon is located on Georgia, Alabama, line. The canyon has colors from the Alabama clay. The rocks are
The mill is open for tours and corn-grinding demonstrations on the 3rd Saturday of every month. Stone ground cornmeal and grits are always available. Laurel Fork Falls makes a spectacular 80-foot drop directly into Lake Jocacee and is best viewed from the lake. However, the falls can be viewed from either Lake Jocacee or from the Foothills Trail. From land: a 5-6 hour 8.1 mile hike over difficult terrain will require an overnight stay. The Pickens Country Club is a classic old-style golf course that offers lots of challenges, especially on holes #2 and #16, both par 4 's, that require accuracy to hit to greens.

The Rock at Jocacee is a notable golf course of rolling terrain featuring a sliding rock waterfall. Walking allowed after 1pm on weekends. Twin Falls, one of the spectacular waterfalls to see is also known as Reedy Cove Falls, Rock Falls, or Eastatoe Falls. For camping facilities there are many choices in the large area.

Dunbar Cave State Park has been a state natural area since 1973, when Governor Winfield Dunn bought the land. The park is named after Thomas Dunbar, who was the first to settle on the 110 acre property in Clarksville, Tennessee, along with his his family, in 1784. The grounds include a visitor center, three hiking trails which are all under two miles, ranging from easy to moderate, Swan Lake and, of course, Dunbar Cave. The lake is a mere fifteen acres, so neither swimming nor boating are allowed, however it is an exceptional fishing hole.
In my community I have flood issue and properties in Danville’s floodplain are subject to three flood problems: overbank flooding, local drainage, and sewer backup. You could be faced with one, two or all three of these hazards. The major flood problem facing Danville is Flooding of the Susquehanna River. Since 1891, 56 floods have caused the Susquehanna River to exceed its channel capacity and inundate riverfront communities. Although some of the most notable floods were the result of tropical storms, the majority of flood events are attributed to snowmelts; 20 of the 25 largest floods of record occurred between January and April. Major flood events occurred in 1936, 1972, 1975, 1984 and 1996. Mahoning Creek drains from the northwest into Susquehanna River at Danville. Mahoning Creek is subject to flooding from heavy local storms and backup flooding when the Susquehanna River floods. Sechlers Run drains from the east and flows through channels and conduits in the Borough to Mahoning Creek. Blizzard Run also drains from the east into Sechlers Run. When Mahoning Creek is high Sechlers Run is diverted to a pumping station and sent into Mahoning Creek. Overbank flooding potentially affects the Borough along Mulberry Street on Sechlers Run. Flooding also presents a safety hazard. Velocities can be as high as 6 or 7 feet per second – so fast that the flood will wash people off their feet in only ½ foot of floodwaters. This is particularly true in sections of the Sechlers Run in concrete channels.
After the flood, people can experience emotional problems. They may have lost their sense of security and have difficulty sleeping when it rains or storms, for instance. This is called immaterial damage.
