We've got neighbors who fly flags 24/7 in all kinds of weather. It's disrespectful to fly it at night (without a spotlight) and in high winds, among other things. Never thought I'd become a stickler on this, but if one loves the flag it deserves to be honored, too.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02971991029290518107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-75419920715671354272013-12-27T16:13:57.902-05:002013-12-27T16:13:57.902-05:00Yes, I usually do.
