Flags of Summer


I love flags, and I'd like to highlight flags periodically this summer.



Welcome to my home. Soon I'll have pots of flowers around my front porch and back patio. I enjoy hanging flags from my back deck, but it's rained so much this spring I haven't been able to do that yet.

My garden is underway though. We've got our peppers and tomatoes planted. I've already picked a few strawberries and hope to have a good season. My yard isn't huge, but I'm able to plant a few things.

How about you? Do you like to garden? Fruits? Veggies?

Do you enjoy hanging flags?

This Memorial Day weekend is a great time to show our pride in America.



Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Small town USA

Over the weekend we drove to Richmond, Indiana to watch Asbury University play tennis. We traveled the back roads of Indiana and discovered some beautiful sights. I didn't realize there were so many lakes in Indiana. We drove through a lot of flat farm land and saw small town America. We stopped at a McDonalds and it was packed. While standing in line I observed people talking from one table to the next.
The American flag was displayed at many of the homes we drove past. So I'm going to try and show my patriotic spirit on this blog and show a flag a week.
In case you're curious, Asbury won the conference and for the first time in college history the team is going to Nationals. (Back in the day and individual play was picked to go to Nationals, but now teams go.)
