State Flags

The nearby City of Weslaco, Texas, has an interesting display near their downtown. A small park surrounds a line of flag poles flying the flags of each of the fifty States of the Union, in the order of their entry into the United States, from Delaware to Hawaii. (Yes, Barack, we only have fifty States.)
















A very up-lifting, patriotic sight. Each pole has an attached plaque giving a brief history of that State including the date that State ratified the US Constitution in the case of the original thirteen States, or joined the Union in the case of the subsequent thirty-seven States.

Makes you feel proud to be an American!
