Welcome to an almost daily peek at our beautiful Williamsburg, Virginia which includes the "Historic Triangle" consisting of Colonial Williamsburg -the world’s largest living history museum- Yorktown and Jamestown.
This costumed employee of Colonial Williamsburg carries a cresset down the street, complete with wood for burning The cresset - a woven metal basket on a pole - provides a raised light source much like a street light; only this one is more portable.
