Today is my first time at the Franklin Library in Des Moines. I rode my bike past here last week and realized what a cool, nice looking place it is so I thought I'd pop in today. It's a lot smaller than the main library downtown, but it just got a big overhaul one or two years ago. The best part: you don't have to pay for parking like you do downtown. This might be my new fave Internet hang out spot. It's also better than a coffee shop because you don't have to pay for a coffee just to use the free wi-fi. I love free things, if you haven't caught on yet.
