Gorgeous... where was that taken?
Beautiful! What a wonderful day to celebrate being an american. I am so happy that you enjoy my blog. I was just curious how you found it. If you like you may e-mail me tiffair81@aol.com. Cock a dooodle doo!
btw, tamwill is my mom.
Martha~ This is the info sent to me by my Uncle in SeaWa, about the flower flag.
Between the fields where the flag is planted, there are 9+ miles of flower fields that go all the way to the ocean. The flowers are grown by seed
companies. It's a beautiful place, close to Vandenberg AFB.
Check out the dimensions of the flag. The 2002 Floral Flag is 740 feet long and 390 feet wide and maintains the proper Flag dimensions, as described in Executive Order #10834. This Flag is 6.65 acres and is the first Floral Flag to be planted with 5 pointed Stars, comprised of White Larkspur. Each Star is 24 feet in diameter; each Stripe is 30 feet wide. This Flag is estimated to contain more than 400,000 Larkspur plants, with 4-5 flower stems each, for a total of more than 2 million flowers. You can drive by this flag on V Street south of Ocean Ave. in Lompoc, CA.
Tiff~
May I call you Tiff? I found you by clicking "next blog" at the top of the screen. I have other blogging buddies that think it's a dangerous thing to do, but I enjoy seeing what's out there. So far I've been really blessed not to come upon any "nasty" sites. Of course if I get a feeling it might be, I quickly click "next blog". :-) btw: I think it's so cool you and your mom blog together!
Lillie~ Thank you so much for your kind words. Link away! I hope someday that I might be able to reach someone who needs what I have to give and that God will use me according to His will. Also, it gives me a place to vent and hopefully, get stuff off my chest so I can be a better mommie. :-) Martha keeps me on track. That's a huge help. She's really wonderful.
Thanks Ladies!! :-D
Oh yes, this is one of the most popular patriotic pics going around. I throughly enjoy this; it's lovely!
Happy Fourth of July everybody! My fireworks were so great!
