Warm Springs, GA and FDR's Little White House

Even though this morning started out overcast and cool, we decided it would be a good day to drive to Warm Springs, GA and visit FDR's "Little White House". A very interesting place with a lot of history. This is another one of those places that you need to visit to get the full effect. Upon arrival at the Little White House you start your tour in a FDR museum with a lot of memorabilia. There is a 15 minute movie that tells you what brought him to Warm Springs and why he built the house there.

I must have forgot all that I learned in my US Government class from school when I was reminded that he was elected to four terms as President! Guess the term limit came after him.

The captioned pictures will show just a bit of what you see here. A highly recommended place to visit!

This Ford had hand controls for the clutch, brake and gas, designed by FDR himself for his use.

Guard house outside the compound.


The servants quarters - really quite nice!

The unfinished portrait that he was posing for the day he died.


Street view of Warm Springs. A neat little town with a lot of small shops and eating places.



View from lookout in FDR State Park. Going to Warm Spring we drove through the park and again I recommend this. Very scenic.
