We checked in to my regular hotel, the Franklin Quality Inn. I have always been fascinated by their late 70s building style, but inside it's all modern. They have some great historical pictures of the area hanging along the walls.
After a late lunch at Benjamin's Roadhouse, we strolled up and down Liberty Street to walk off lunch, which lasted until we hit Bossa Nova Coffee Roasters. After my large latte, I was rarin' to go! We walked around some more to look at the architecture and sights.
Venango County Courthouse
Houses along Elk Street
Elk Street House built in 1879--it was for sale!
Civil War Monument, Bandstand Park
Venango County Jail
Window detail
This building was the old PennDOT District 1-0 office
Franklin Public Library, built in 1894, remodeled 1921
I've read that this church has a Tiffany stained-glass window--that would be neat to see.
Victorian house
Look at what emerged from the chrysalis!
That's all for today--now to figure out what's for dinner. It's almost 7 and I could eat, but not Fe. She eats like a butterfly.
