Flag Day

My grandmother's favorite holiday was Flag Day and this post is for her :-)  

I think it says quite a bit about her and her generation — I'm pretty sure most Americans don't even know Flag Day is a holiday. Her father was the first postmaster of Chicagoland's Fox River Grove Post Office, as seen in this undated photograph.

Happy Flag Day!

This flag is proudly flying in front of Fred's General Mercantile on Beech Mountain.
