Our Small Town

Can I just say that I love the fact that I came home today to find that our street had been lined with the American flag?  Each telephone post has a beautiful, in-tact, non-faded flag waving from the top.  Seriously, I know our country isn’t perfect and that God isn’t always going to “bless us” just because we ask Him to, but I’m certainly grateful to live here and always will be. 

However, can I also say that I’m not too excited to see mr. donkey-wagon decor make his summer appearance?  This little fellow was keeping guard over our apartment building last summer just after we moved here, (bless our landlords attempts to make this place feel “homey”), and we thought maybe he’d been stolen when we didn’t see him around anymore.  Nope.  Here he is.
