My Flag

I have always loved hanging the flag out for special days. However since I have grown up the country has added a few states. A few years back I realized I was out of date. I always hoped the wind did not blow too much to expose my flag. One year I helped in the office of Congressman Larry Winn and after he was reelected he gave me a flag that flew over the country's capitol building and had 50 stars. I had a hole in the front yard and put up my flag proudly. Martin Luther King day is coming up this week but with the snow piled over the flag pole hole it will stay in the front closet and stay warm. Maybe it will be nicer on President's Day. Of course how do I get the flag in the hole from my wheelchair? I think it will stay in the house. The neighbors have the flag up everyday and I will admire theirs.
