Wednesday was devoted to the Roosevelt's. When we were in Hyde Park in June we missed touring the homes...so we were determined to do that. And our efforts were rewarded. FDR's place was amazing...looked like they had just walked out the door. "Springwood" was his lifelong home and never really became a place that he and Eleanor enjoyed together...something about that mother-in-law. Very interesting...we also saw grave sites, rose gardens and personal FDR collections there. Seems that FDR is the only president who is also buried among his beloved pets.
