June 14th is Flag Day. It was first celebrated in 1877, which was the 100th Anniversary of our Flag, hence the cutie pie with the 37 Star Flag.
Â
The Pledge of Allegience was first said in 1892, the 400th Anniversary of Columbus discovering America.
Â
Woodrow Wilson established Flag Day as a national celebration in 1916. Congress officially recognized Flag Day by passing the National Flag Day Bill in 1949, during President Harry Truman’s administration.
I was hoping to have a photo of my Flag out in the garden, but, the remnents of Alberto are playing havoc with that plan. Happy Flag Day, y’all!
