Friday Flags in Orlando, FL

Friday Flags in Orlando, FL

I had an early morning tee time this week and as I was driving along International Drive, the flutter at the center of SeaWorld was something that needed attention.

The rides were empty, the sun was making its rise, and the flag was prepared for another day.

 

It was a good omen to start the day and had I been a bit more observant and not so flag focused, I could have had a shot with the morning full moon as well.

I'm sure who ever was on the rides the rest of the day may not have seen the flag as they were far to energized with staying in the cars.

Good Friday morning, Ed.

We have a sunny day in Maryland and the flags are flying in our home community.

Ed, glad to hear you were able to enjoy a day of golf, and great photo of the flag.

I’m very lucky that my neighbor directly across the street has a beautiful flag displayed daily. It is something that I enjoy seeing every day.

I am sure that flag is much larger than what the photo depicts.  As you say the rides most likely had all the attention.  m

Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 - The American Flag always catches my eye. Betsy Ross got it right when she designed our country's flag. I have a habit of putting my thoughts on pause when I see the flag and mediate on what it means.

Hello Ed and thank you for sharing the flags with us on Friday's.  I see lots of flags when driving and can not stop and take a picture.

Bill Salvatore - East Valley   Thank you.  I have more time when not rushing to appointments to stop and tke a few photos to share.

Kat Palmiotti   We saw this a lot as it was so close to our resort. Having minimal traffic so I could stop and take a photo was the issue plus having it waving in the breeze.

Roy Kelley, we have had a breezy spring so far, so they are waving all over.

Joan Cox   Thank yum it was like a double victory.

Joyce Marsh   We are one of the neighbors that does display the flag and ironically all on the street that do are veterans.

Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint-Idaho   I would suspect for the distance that that flag had to be at least a 10x15 in size.

George Souto   I doubt anyone on those rides is thinking of that flag and just hoping they don't fall out on those turns.

Kathy Streib   That is a very long road and so much to do and see if one takes the time to drive on it.

Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP   It give it's considerations but too many people don't even care.

Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400   There are  a lot of homes and businesses that do display the flag, but people don't seem to notice or care.

Will Hamm   Then you have to leave a little Lombardi time on your schedule.

Carol Williams   It gets easier once you recognize the type of area or business that might have them displayed.

Leanne Smith   One cannot be late to make a comment as the posts are there until someone decides to not keep it up.
