Old Glory, the American Flag, was adopted on June 14, 1777, by resolution of the Second Continental Congress. In 1916, the President of the United States issued a proclamation establishing June 14 as Flag Day. In August 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act of Congress. Every year around this week I pull out my flags and display them in my pots on my patio. I did that this past weekend. How do you display your Old Glory? ENJOY!
