Oh! Canada!

No, I did not have to go all the way to Canada to find this flag offender. In fact, this photo was taken from my front yard.

My neighbor and good friend, Denis (Deni) is a French-Canadian. He admired the way I was always flying flags and so put up a 20' flag pole in his front yard. While Denis knew how to fly the Maple Leaf, he had no idea which way was up on the Texas flag. He consulted with his wife, a doctor and Texan, but they got it wrong!

Try issuing a citation to a neighbor, especially when English is his second language -- but I did and it now flies right!

Santyanny!

This photo was taken in Santa Anna, TX. Seems the well-heeled folks of this one-horse town don't know how to fly the Texas Flag.

And in Veterans Park, of all places.

They must be haunted by their namesake, Not St. Anne -- the other one!

The Surrender of Santa Anna. William Henry Huddle, 1836.
