Mr. and Mrs. Bob White Caught in the Act of Enjoying a Stroll at New Quarter Park



Williamsburg, July 26, 2010 - The extreme heat didn't stop Mr. and Mrs. Bob White from taking a stroll at New Quarter Park this past Saturday. Staffer Jack Cole snapped a photo of Mrs. White just before Mr. White called the interloper to her attention. The pair took cover from the paparazzi just off the beaten path and were last seen progressing nonchalantly into the wooded ravine on the Cub Creek or east side of the park.


Mr. Cole happened upon Mr. and Mrs. White as they were about to begin picnicking along hiking loop 7. They were seen sampling the food arrayed near Bluebird Box 11, about 50 yards from the Restoration Habitat being developed by a group of local nature nuts, who hope the pair will choose the York County, Virginia, park as their permanent residence.
