Every “flag” holiday, volunteers put up American flags along both sides of about a four-mile stretch of what would be Main Street here in Green Valley, Arizona, USA. Many of the residents are retired service people, so there are a lot of people who are willing to perform this flag ceremony. I got there as some of them were going up. One of the volunteers had his granddaughter helping. A great lesson for her, I thought.
Photographed with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28.

Wonderful to see this! Nicely captured!
Thank you so much, Dot. The row of flags without any cars, golf carts (the second most popular mode of transportation in GV), or bikes was quite dull, so I was happy when this cyclist rode through my viewfinder.
