Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Here we are at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. According to the history of the place, TR came here first in 1883 when he was 25 years old. Being from a family of means, he of course spent a ton of money to buy an interest in a cattle ranch. He then returned to New York... not long afterward, his wife and his mother both died on the same day. TR later returned to this area and said that the peace and solitude he got here helped him recover and that had he not come here, he would not have been ready to be president (which of course was much later). 

Of course, TR also died at the age of 60, so maybe the North Dakota winters were responsible for his not living to a ripe old age...
