I visited the FDR memorial this past spring, and it was so different and impressive. I loved the outdoor “rooms” that represented his four terms and the way the trees and nature seemed to grow right into and out of the granite. Very interesting place. And a great photo you captured!

Thanks. I didn’t get to spend enough time exploring the whole monument, so I guess I will have to go back. 🙂

Thanks. I agree about the despair. Maybe it is the closed eyes that do it.
