Speaking of Hometown flags, though not the same subject, this is a photo of the Avenue of Flags in Holstein Iowa.
The town is right along US Hwy 20 in NW Iowa and US 59 jct. They had them up over the fourth and are still up as I write this. On the far right of the photo you can see US 20. They are only put up 4-5 times a year. Memorial day, Veterans Day, the 4th of July, and Labor day. May be a couple other days too. Sometimes for special occasions. One of the original guys that worked on the project passed away. He was a Navy man. They set up the flags and I was the RC for the PGR for his mission and we did the escort through the Avenue of Flags. That was a while ago.
In the Picture you can see the large flag and at the bottom what looks like a rock with a flag painted on it. It is a rock with a flag painted on it. A big rock. If you heard of the Freedom Rock outside Greenfield Iowa, Ray Sorensen, the artist has a project to put a painted rock in each Iowa county. 99 of them. If you are riding through Iowa it is a great thing to go out and find the rocks and see the art work.
