FDR Birthplace, Homes, and Grave

Where to begin? Would you like to visit the big house of Franklin Roosevelt (where he was born), the little house of Eleanor Roosevelt, or the cottage FDR used when he wanted to get away -- three miles away -- from both? How about posing with a statue of Franklin and Eleanor, or visiting their graves next to the one for Fala, FDR's famous dog? Don't forget the museum: its displays include Fala's doggy bowl, Eleanor's engagement ring, and one of the bullets that failed to kill FDR in an attempted assassination!
