Every week-end is important for Franklin and his family. They have little time in week days to spend it together, but they spend together all week-ends.Mr. Franklin is a businessman. His wife works in the city hospital, but she doesn't work on week-ends. Their children study in the University, but they don't have classes on week-ends. Only Franklin's dog, Rower, stays home all the week, but it never stays home on the week-ends, as the Franklins spend every week-end out of town and take their dog with them. They have a small week-end house with a garden. They arrive there on Friday evenings. They drink tea together in the evening. On Saturday mornings they work in the garden, during the day the go to swim in the river and they visit their neighbors in the evenings. On Sundays the Franklins return home to town to go back to work on Mondays.
