Franklin Inn Mexican Restaurant

We have been patrons of the Franklin Inn for many years. We like to come for any reason, but especially birthdays, anniversaries, promotions and other happy family events. Being the father (and resident funny-man; at least I think so) I am always on the look out for a joke or a prank. The first time I encountered the parrot hanging in the dining room I had had two large glass canning jars of traditional margaritas pretty much on my own (my wife the designated driver). I stood up after a glorious dinner of my usual combination dishes and whacked my head on the bottom of the parrot, which at that time was more centrally located in the dinning room. I made a comedic effort swooning and shaking my fist at the bird. The first time it happened the kids thought it was funny and laughed quite a bit. Over the years I've tried to replicate this attempt at physical humor, but of course as my kids got older, it was less funny and more embarrassment. The problem is, I still think its funny. However; is it a coincidence that Mr./Ms Parrot has been relocated to a far corner of the dinning room, so that silly buffoons like me cannot whack it like a pinata with our heads for cheap yucks? In any event we continue to love coming to the Franklin inn for the sumptuous, authentic Mexican food and thirst quenching drinks. We hope to do so for many years to come. Thank you for maintaining suc h a quality food and drink family establishment with knowledgeable and courteous wait staff and bartenders. Via Con Dios Mi Amigos - Peter May
