On our way back from the NTA in Escanaba last month,my wifes friend Pauline that was with us,counted 103 American flags between Escanaba and the Soo.
My wife does quite a bit of beadwork,and was inspired to make these pair of earrings.

Beautiful ear rings, Boco. I like to wear nice ear rings too. Nice news on the countenance of people along the way . Most of America is this way.

Those hook ear rings are my favorite.

That is something , that is sadly Lacking in Canada. I always fly a Canadian flag in our yard. Other than our municipal buildings , very few people are proud enough to fly our flag. Most just can't seem to be bothered, Very nice beadwork Boco , old243

Very nice bead work. Just a little suggestion; I would have it hanging from the blue corner (stars), but I can cut a Canadian some slack for hanging the way they are.

During covid there was a big up tick with flags on lots of vehicles. Just people ticked off. Some were even upside down which I didn’t agree with, what a kick in the nards to our friends who never came home….old wars and recent wars.
I notice pride (the real pride) every trip I make to the states. In the last 20 years the furthest I’ve been is Escanaba. I’m guessing the American pride drops off in some areas/states?
