Friday Flags in Southington CT Depaolo Middle School

I am always looking for our flag, and do make a point of stopping if I see one. I do allow extra time for road distractions, so I wasn't late.

This flag was flying proud and was almost in the back yard of the listing I was going to, so it was an easy stop.

The building is the assembly hall for Depaolo Middle School in Southington, CT. It is also clearly visible for the road better than 1000 ft away so how coo to drive into school and see our flag.

It was a breezy day, so my wait was almost nil, and as it was so pleasant, I took a second shot for appreciation.

I do like seeing our flag waving proudly in the breeze and in front of a school starts a mindset for the attendees early.

Good morning, Ed... you certainly caught a good breeze today! Doesn't our flag look lovely blowing in the wind?

Nina Hollander, Broker I'm starting to think that the flags know my intent and they hop to it for me.

Ed I don't know if they were always there, BUT I have been noticing more and more American Flags lately.

HI ed- there's something very stately and appropriate when you see our flag flying high in front of a school.

I remember being in charge of putting the flag up in the morning and taking it down at the end of the day when I was in middle school.  I wonder if a student handles this one or if it is the maintenance staff.

Hello Roy Kelley and thanks for stopping.

George Souto   I got you hooked, and now you are looking to see if I put one up that you went by.

Kathy Streib   I agree, but also, I do believe they belong in front of any type of public building and that would include schools.

Brian England   In this litigious society, I believe maintenance does it as part of their union jobs, and parents don't get a chance to sue the school board for rope burns.

I grew up on military bases as my father was transferred every few years (as most service people are). The flag is home, no matter if the place is older or new to you.

Hi Ed, 

It is always great to get the pic when the flag is full of wind, but you outdid yourself with this one. Great shot!
