Almost Wordless Wednesday ~ Fly High Old Glory

By
Real Estate Agent with Front Gate Real Estate Broker 11085

This weekend I visited a friend in the hospital. The first thing I noticed surrounding the flagpole was the knockout roses and our flag flying high. Although the wind wasn't cooperative, after a dozen shots or so, I was able to capture the flag almost fully extended. I knew the flag would be todays feature for Almost Wordless Wednesday.

 

Have a Safe and Happy 4th of July

Happy Independence Day!

I love to see flags fluttering in the wind, the way they ripple with the breeze is wonderful.

Oh, that's a GREAT shot, Pat! Every time I see an American flag, I want to stop and shoot a photo - that and flowers!  And, you captured both!  I'm a big fan of knockout roses too! 

I have them along my front as a hedge. They're hard to see in this picture but, they bloom for months and I just think they're so beautiful - and easy to maintain too!

Knockout roses
