I love seeing the American flag flying in the breeze. Especially the big ones. There are a few flags that fly proudly in our area, like the flags that are at Perkins Restaurants. There's a big flag in Stewartville at the porno place, but hey, the flag flies proudly.

The largest flagpole in North America is 400 feet tall and flies an American Flag that is the height of four stories. The flag measures 60 feet by 120 feet and weighs 220 pounds. A flag of the same size but weighing 350 pounds is flown during rougher weather. This awesome tribute to America was created by Acuity Insurance and is on display at their headquarters in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. A monument at it’s base that honors Veterans that have been killed in action.

Take a look at what it took to make it happen. It's pretty cool. - Alan
