What #Forestry work did #FDR do in Warm Springs?
FDR had several thousand #longleaf #pine #seedlings planted and protected his #woodedlands by keeping #firebreaks in good condition at all times. #wildlife @GaStateParks @NPS_HydePark @GaTrees #trees #pinetrees #forest

[Little White House @OfficialLWH]

Did you Know that #FDR had a #firetower built! His interest in #Forestry and #conservation caused his local neighbors to become more “#fire conscious” in the protection of their own #woodedlands. @GaStateParks @GaTrees #Pines #longleaf @NPS_HydePark

#President #Roosevelt typically used the aid of a #wheelchair to get around, in the public’s eye he used the assistance of a #walkingcane and the support of an assistant to help keep him balanced. #FDR also wore leg braces to keep his legs straight. #LWH @GaStateParks #polio

#FDR had a keen interest in sailing since he was young. While attending #Harvard , his mother Sarah gave him an #iceboat named the “Hawk.” He would #BOATRACE on the frozen #HudsonRiver reaching speeds of over 80 miles an hour! #LWH @GaStateParks @NPS_HydePark @FDRLibrary
