Jean says, “It was windy today. How windy was it?
I went out by the ocean, and the gusts were very strong.
I sat on the pier, and felt it shaking.”

Jean: “Old Glory never fails to move me. This large flag proudly waves on Main Avenue in view of the Camp Meeting Association flags. It is a beautiful sight to behold.”
From an essay on the flag by William O’Malley of the Heritage Foundation: “The promise of America lives on through those brave heroes who have, over the centuries, fought to fulfill our societal vow that, wherever the American flag flies, there too shall be found life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”
