I spotted this flag in North Carolina. The setting makes me want to sit down on the front porch with a big glass of sweet ice tea.
I'd like to share a quote from President Woodrow Wilson...
"This flag, which we honor and under which we serve, is the emblem of our unity, our power, our thought and purpose as a nation. It has no other character than that which we give it from generation to generation. The choices are ours. It floats in majestic silence above the hosts that execute those choices, whether in peace or in war. And yet, though silent, it speaks to us — speaks to us of the past, or the men and women who went before us, and of the records they wrote upon it."
Positive conversations with old and new friends. I'd love for you to join me on my back porch.
