I looked out of the pilot house one day and saw that two boats had come in both with flags flying high. The wind was helping to display the flags beautifully. It was such a pretty sight two see the red, white, and blue brightly flying proudly that I had to take a shot. I was reminded of the pledge of allegiance and did a little research to discover The pledge of Allegiance was originally written by Francis Bellamy in 1892 but not adopted by Congress until 1945. In 1954 the words "under God" were added. Since I am not in school everyday anymore, where we recited the pledge every morning, I thought it was nice to have a reminder.
Proud to be an American!
