Day 4 - Roosevelt Memorial
Rosemary and Marcia taking advantage of one the the very many teaching moments this trip has offered everyone. The kids are absorbing a tremendous amount every day and are nearly constantly forming associations with concepts, historical figures, and ideals that we all hope will last them a lifetime.
Thanks Marcia and Rosemary!!!
Take note of the broken "I hate war"
Integrating into the food line.
We ventured through the four "rooms" of the memorial. It is an beautiful park setting and introduces the visitor to the four served terms of the President. The quotes in all four rooms were inspiring and as relevent today as they were then. Beyond Roosevelt's work to help ensure jobs through the Public Works Acts, he hoped to bring about a transformation in how the world interacted and worked to bring about the United Nations.
