These flags fly proudly at one of KY's rest stops. A famous man once said " It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible." That man was George Washington.

Yes, it WAS windy! At the top of the tower the sustained winds were probably in the 30-40 mph range while gusts were topping 50 mph. It was one heck of a view and well worth the ffort, but I had to go inside the tower to change lenses, and I took off my hat and attached it to my bag strap to keep it from returning to Ohio before me.
While in Mayodan, we ate at the newly opened Bojangles. The food was good and the place was immaculate. But...
In my travels with David, I have been to Mayodan before. But, when out and about with David, for some reason, we hardly ever came into contact with the people who lived in the areas we visited. Dona and I are always coming into contact with them.
Our choices of where to eat in Mayodan (smaller than even Madison) were Burger King and Bojangles. We opted for Bojangles. As soon as we parked, we noticed something peculiar. Dona pointed out that there was an old lady staring it us. I turned to look at the car on my side of the SUV. Sure enough, there was an old lady in a powder blue, double knit pantsuit giving us what Dona called the "stink eye". Then her son came out. I could hear the banjos beginning to play.
When we went inside Bojangles there was an almost collective turning of heads in our direction. We ordered our food, Dona complained at the prices, and we sat down.
We started eating and Dona asked, What is that man staring at? Is my hair messed up? Sure enough, across a couple of tables from us was a group of people. At one end of the gathered tables was this older man with a negative look on his face. And, Dona was right. He was staring at us.
Sitting on our table was my camera with the 300mm lens on it. The man could plainly see I was not using the camera. But, I sure wanted to document the strange acting people that were there at Bojangles that day.
As the man and his group were leaving, I noticed a lady at another table was using her phone as a camera. I remembered I had my iPod in my pocket. I regret I did not pull it out to take a discreet shot of that man staring at us.
Before we left, of course, Dona and I had to hit the john. When it was my turn, I told Dona, if I'm not out within five minutes, call 911. The banjo people have got me,

Icons carry so much baggage. Just pushing the shutter button made me feel like I was making a political statement, one that I didn't fully comprehend. But it's just a bit of cloth, isn't it?
Russians appeared to be one of the most 'flag-proud' people we have come across on our travels so far. That probably shouldn't come as a big surprise, but it somehow always amazes me how a couple of coloured bands of fabric can instil such strong emotions in human beings. But then again, that's probably why I do research on collective identities (see www.imagining.eu).
This was one of the pre-finalized versions of what would become Dialtown's flag; the design is mostly the same, but there are a few differences.

Construction warning flags indicating gas main (yellow) and telephone trunk (red) on the township road allowance in front of my house. There may be some work done on Church St. this year. However, it cannot be started until the new school is ready for occupancy and the two old schools are closed due to child pedestrian traffic and multiple school buses accessing the schools.
