Ben Franklin FUN!

Who is rich? He that rejoices in his Portion.

Franklin City Scape
post office, hospital, library, fire station and sanitation department

Diligence is the mother of good luck.

because Ben spent most of his childhood helpin' out dad in the candle and soap shop

Virtue and a Trade, are a Child's best Portion.

Ben loved to write...and write and write and write.

Lost time is never found again.

 and we're pretty sure his hands looked like this:

Haste makes waste.

so....that was all week ONE.
we might be studying Ben Franklin for a very very long time.
and no one's complainin'.

What one relishes, nourishes.

(quotes are from his Almanack)
