Hey guys, man am I late to the party this time.
The big news here is that Old Glory is now in full flight overtop the little coal yard in Loysburg. I put in a few late nights digging the hole and mixing concrete but last evening the pole went into the foundation sleeve. It wasn’t exactly the circumstances surrounding the raising at Mount Suribachi but I am very proud nonetheless. I regret that I did not take the opportunity to serve but I am most grateful for all that have. I will be wiring a spotlight on it and doing the landscape tomorrow morning.
I think I will rest some this afternoon and throw the baseball with Dolan. Hope everyone has a great holiday and the utmost thank you to those who paid the ultimate.
I apologize for the sideways photos, I can’t fix them. Maybe a moderator will.

Where did you get the pole from and how the heck did you fellows heave that up! Was it easy going up? Good job fellows, will be there for years!
