I remember reading in the newspaper when Franklin Square re-opened awhile back and have been meaning to get here, but when you’re on your bike, it’s a bit hard to get there.  So Zora and I borrowed Hiram’s car and drove over to check it out.  The playground has some cool stuff, but there’s also a carousel (that you have to pay for) and a fountain and a mini-golf course and, on the November day we visited, Santa Claus!  A big hit.  Next time we come, though, we’re going to bring some lunch.
