“It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.”

Cross Roads Coffee Shop – 2.5″ x 3.5″ Watercolor ATC
This is a cute little coffee shop I found on Google Street View. The
part that is really weird about it is that there was a huge sign that
said coffee on the side of the building. I didn’t realize I forgot to
add it until I was nearly done painting this….. and I am a sign lady!! I
have owned my sign shop for 21 years!! I forgot the sign? What’s up
with that????
About Franklin D. Roosevelt
Four-term American president Franklin Delano Roosevelt, known as FDR,
pulled America out of the Great Depression and led the country during
World War II. He was born in New York in 1882. His political career
halted when a bout of polio paralyzed him from the waist down, but after
learning to walk with leg braces, he became governor of New York and
then president. His New Deal initiatives included Social Security, jobs
programs, and collective bargaining. He died in 1945.
