Memorial Day Flags

My Littlest Sweetheart, Memorial Day 2014
My Littlest Sweetheart, Memorial Day 2014

I live in a very small town with lots of Boy Scouts.

In my very small town, the Boys Scouts post flags several times each year.  Memorial Day happens to be one of the days on which a flag appears in my front lawn.  This completely delighted my two year old this morning.  He ran right out to inspect the flag and dance around it’s base.  While I didn’t feel the need to run directly to the flag and begin dancing away, I too was completely delighted to see the Star Spangled Banner posted in my yard, gently waving in the breeze.  In fact, I was delighted all day long as I drove around town and saw the streets lined with flags.

Does your town post flags for Memorial Day?
