My flag didn't get transferred to the new pole. Maybe I will get it done by the fourth. We help my wife's friend tomorrow move from one apartment to another. We are buying her a new bed and I get to use my new, old truck. L.

Students in our high school took turns raising and lowering the school flag each day. It was an honor and it was treated as such if you got a turn. Seems like it was just the boys who did this. I don't know if they had to be boy scouts or something like that.Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12404589772713955710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-8060499714027721312017-06-14T09:05:10.806-05:002017-06-14T09:05:10.806-05:00I doubt that flag etiquette is even taught now, wh...I doubt that flag etiquette is even taught now, which is very sad.

I am sure Mr. Cox impacted many lives. We have several homes on our street that are vacant many months of the year and John goes around and cares for the flags.
