   i caught the end of the clip on sunday morning with bill geist, but did not hear whether franklin is in pennsylvania or where. they said it was on the banks of the allegheny river, that is near pittsburgh(oor rather runs thru pittsburgh). so where is franklin located in reference to pittsburgh??? ps- bill geist is quite they story teller of the decade(i really enjoy his part on sunday morning) especially the ones about or involving nature. steve bitters of chas., sc phone -843-343-2120
