Bulloch Hall

Saturday, November 24, 2012

On Saturday, I traveled over to Roswell to take photographs of people taking self-guided tours of Bulloch Hall. Built in 1839, the plantation house was the childhood home of Mittie Bulloch, President Theodore Roosevelt’s mother. For the holiday season, each room in the home has been decorated with a presidential theme, representing 11 different heads of state from George Washington to Jimmy Carter. The self-guided tour Christmas in the White House at Bulloch Hall runs November 17 through December 30.
