Bushfield, also known as Bushfield Manor, is a historic plantation home located at Mount Holly, Westmoreland County, Virginia. It was built in the 18th century, and is a two-story, five-bay, brick, center-passage, and single-pile dwelling. In 1916, noted architect Waddy Butler Wood renovated and enlarged the dwelling in the Colonial Revival style. It features a portico and lantern reflecting the property's association with the family of George Washington. Also on the property are a contributing Bungalow-style Caretaker's House, barn, silo, and cemetery. Bushfield was the homestead of John Bushrod and John Augustine Washington (1736–1787), brother to George Washington.
Virginia (i/vərˈdʒɪnjə/vər-JIN-yə, UK/vərˈdʒɪniə/vər-JIN-ee-ə), officially the Commonwealth of Virginia, is a state located in the South Atlantic region of the United States. Virginia is nicknamed the "Old Dominion" due to its status as the first colonial possession established in mainland British America, and "Mother of Presidents" because eight U.S. presidents were born there, more than any other state. The geography and climate of the Commonwealth are shaped by the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Chesapeake Bay, which provide habitat for much of its flora and fauna. The capital of the Commonwealth is Richmond; Virginia Beach is the most populous city, and Fairfax County is the most populous political subdivision. The Commonwealth's estimated population as of 2014 is over 8.3 million.
The area's history begins with several indigenous groups, including the Powhatan. In 1607 the London Company established the Colony of Virginia as the first permanent New WorldEnglish colony. Slave labor and the land acquired from displaced Native American tribes each played a significant role in the colony's early politics and plantation economy. Virginia was one of the 13 Colonies in the American Revolution and joined the Confederacy in the American Civil War, during which Richmond was made the Confederate capital and Virginia's northwestern counties seceded to form the state of West Virginia. Although the Commonwealth was under one-party rule for nearly a century following Reconstruction, both major national parties are competitive in modern Virginia.
The reason for Virginia's name is not known; it may be named after Verginia, the Roman noblewoman slain by her father, but it may alternatively have been named after the American state of Virginia, which is contiguous with Washington.
Photometric observations of this asteroid at the Organ Mesa Observatory in Las Cruces, New Mexico during 2008 gave a light curve with a period of 14.315 ± 0.001 hours and a brightness variation of 0.19 ± 0.02 in magnitude. The shape of the light curve at the maximum was found to change with phase angle.
The orbit of 50 Virginia places it in an 11:4 mean motion resonance with the planet Jupiter. The computed Lyapunov time for this asteroid is only 10,000 years, indicating that it occupies a chaotic orbit that will change randomly over time because of gravitational perturbations of the planets.

A Drive down Bushfield Road, towards Fairway Lane, looking at what effect the tornado of February 24, 2016 had on the roads. You don't see much of any damage until around the 2:00 mark. At the 3:46 mark, the vehicle turns onto Fairway Lane, and proceeds straight to the end of the road at the Holly Cove houses. Then the vehicle turns around and drives back towards Bushfield Road, but turns left at around the 9:48 mark, to proceed down the spur of Fairway Lane that serves the other two homes on Fairway Lane.
