The New Flag


When we bought our house in 1971, we found an American Flag on an aluminum pole with a gold plastic eagle on top, in the front hall closet.  There was a fixture on the front porch railing which held the aluminum flagpole.  Over the years, the hedges grew taller and the flag didn't hang all the way down.  Also, the white stripes on the flag were tan as if they were dyed by tea.  So I finally bought a brand new flag, and I am hanging it from the top of the porch opening.  It is 3.5 feet by 5 feet in size, and is quite beautiful hanging in its new spot, celebrating the Fourth of July.
