The color of flags out on my street
The smell of the earth as new crops are being irrigated, while a tractor is turning under harvested crops in the next field.
An old Chrysler minivan setting derelict with flat tires next to a farmhouse.
A friendly couple on a tandem decked out with flags.
A carload of teenage girls waving at me as they head to our local waterslide with high hopes for the day.
Followed closely by:
A truckload of teenage boys yelling at me as they head to the same waterslide with higher hopes for the day.
A Golden Eagle screeching from a tree near the road.
Rolling hills and oak groves.
A First Division Marines placard out on display at a ranch owned by a man who served next to my uncle in the Pacific in WWII.
A Model A Ford with two flags on it’s fenders heading back from a parade.
A small town park filling up with people anxiously awaiting a holiday concert.
My nice home with a flag out front and a loving family and a cool drink within.
All bits of my America. A pretty good place to be.
Happy July 4th to all :beer:
