A Holiday Story by Spotty and Barney Bush
 
4 of 10


Barney
"Hey, Spotty. Here's a model of a historic home. It's not hanging from a tree but resting on a table under a mirror."

Spotty "That's Springwood, President Franklin Roosevelt's home in Hyde Park, New York. As part of Mrs. Bush's 'Home for the Holidays' theme, the White House's Executive Residence staff built models of the family homes of 17 Presidents."

Barney "President Roosevelt had good taste in dogs. Fala was a great Scottish Terrier, a tribute to our breed."

Spotty "We're running out of time to find the tree. Let's go down the hall to the State Dining Room."
