This Was His Georgia Historic Marker

During the 21 years (1924&#8211;1945) in which he was a constant visitor to Warm Springs, GA., <center><b>Franklin D. Roosevelt</b></center> became familiar with the scenic beauties of field & forest in the environs. The splendid isolation of Dowdell’s Knob, with its vista of valley & cloud-land, was his favorite resort for recreation &#8212; an item of which was the outdoor fireplace, a monument to his further pleasure in the Georgia scene. <br><br> One of his last days was marked by a visit here in the glad April, for quiet contemplation and reverie &#8212; as weary Pilgrims of old came to the Delectable Mountains.
