Fourth Of July Flags–Part Four


There was no breeze to speak of during the day we had the Betsy Ross flag up–so the picture is not very impressive.  In fact, I waited all day for the flag to unfurl in the wind and finally just took a photo at night prior to taking it down.

The Betsy Ross flag is an early design of the flag of the United States, popularly — but very likely incorrectly — attributed to Betsy Ross, using the common motifs of alternating red-and-white striped field with five-pointed stars in a blue canton. The flag was designed during the American Revolution and features 13 stars to represent the original 13 colonies. The distinctive feature of the Ross flag is the arrangement of the stars in a circle.
