Rain Silverhawk , thank you for your post.  Nice video.  The Stars and Stripes always look so special when waving in the wind, no matter the skies.  Mark

Next time you are out this way you should stop by.  I passed by it for a long time always admiring the large flag, but having no idea what laid at the base of the pole.

It is one of those places that you feel a hand on your shoulder and a slight tingling on your spine.  A must stop indeed.
