The bakery has closed or moved to an unknown location
We stopped for coffee on Saturday as Dolores and I did our walk. They weren't open when we passed on Sunday. They won't normally be open on Sunday but due to their grand opening were going to be. I went back in the afternoon to get a baguette.
Sliced and warmed in the oven, the baguette was a perfect companion for some supper's home-made Venus de Milo soup.

Senior Center: path to Oak St/Horace Mann
One of the better things I noticed about the new Senior Center, is that the fence previously dividing the property from the next door Oak Street Elementary, Horance Mann Middle and the Early Childhood Development Center School complex was taken down and enhanced with a path way.
A bridge for the generation gap!
Two critical populations for Franklin now have a way to connect. Let's encourage both the seniors and the schools to make good use of this path.

Senior Center: horseshoe pits
If boccie is not your game, maybe you'll be up for tossing a few shoes!
Note that unlike many basketball hoops in Franklin driveways where the hoop height is lower for the younger kids, the stakes have not been shortened here for the seniors to use a handi-cap!
Senior Center: boccie court
A well rounded senior needs physical exercise and a good game of boccie can help.
Senior Center: Back patio
On nice days, this will get used but it will need some awnings. It lies in the direct sun.
Senior Center: Parking lot
The parking lot was full, cars were parked all along Oak St. My father and I actually parked at the Oak Street School parking lot and walked back to the Senior Center for our visit.
One of the facility workers was chuckling that "they" had planned for about 200 folks to show up. This was busier than the high school field house during voting on Tuesday.
Senior Center: meeting room in front
off the main entrance area to the right and toward the front of the building this meeting room looks out to the parking lot and Oak Street.
across the hall there is a good size exercise room. it was being occupied by a rehearsal (or peformance?) of some 30 or so members of a chorus
Senior Center: Conference room in back
off the center hall in the rear of the Senior Center is this nice conference room.
Senior Center: other half of common room
the other half...
What is not shown - there is also a stage at the right and a grand piano
Senior Center: Library
a nice room, even with the crowd for the open house, I felt I could pull up a chair and get lost in a book.
Senior Center: entrance area
The Open House at the Senior Center was well attended today. Probably more people than turned out to vote last Tuesday.
Flowers on the bridge
The picture yesterday showed the empty flower pots on the other side of the railroad bridge.
This picture was taken earlier this year. I have resurrected it to help refresh our memories of what the flowers looked like.
May the memories keep us warm this winter.
Enjoy!
Where in Franklin? Answer #17
We had two correct replies on this one. The first from Michael LeBlanc, the second from Ken Norman.
The picture for #17 was taken from the corner of the building seen here to the left.
The Rome is a Franklin treasure!
Stay tuned for the next picture.
