OK - it's not quite summer yet, but the hot weather we're having here makes if feel like it is...and who can have a problem w/ patriotic images anyway?
Dallas, TX is a great place to think about the 4th of July. Middle America. Texas. Pride in both. Every year the neighborhood of Lakewood has a grand 4th of July parade. It's all locally done, and I think many residents find iprobably wait all year for this shindig.
But to me, these images convey the spirit of the day, as well as the anticipation of those watching and participating. The Flag Guy pictured here arrives every year, carrying this flag while on roller blades. He carries the mood of the event for me. The little girl in the stoller clearly is anticipating something fun, as is her friend in the background. And the young participant is probably wondering how she got into all of this.
