Friday Flags:  A Wall of Patriotism in Cheshire CTThere is a section of Cheshire, CT known to locals as the Vale. It has some rather prestigious homes but also there are sections that are just country.One can find horses grazing in a meadow and occasionally alongside the road in one of the corrals.Everyone knows that where there are horses, there are also barns., and that is the case here.The wall of the building facing the roadway has a large decoration on the wall, that covers the wall.A flag doesn't always need to be on a pole or attached to a house and this is one family that are proud of their country.Friday Flags:  A Wall of Patriotism in Cheshire CT  10/25/2024

Friday Flags  A Giant Sized Flag in Cheshire CTI pass a Cheshire CT business often, House of Doors, where one can buy any type of replacement door imaginable. They have a rather large guardian that doubles as their flagpole.This Paul Bunyan statue was once one of the many story images that lined the entrance of the old Danbury Fairgrounds, long since replaced by a mall, that may not be the heathiest with the online shopping reality we live in today.He does get noticed on his resent spot and I will give a quick wave when I pass by, probably more so for the flag. Friday Flags  A Giant Sized Flag in Cheshire CT 07/12/2024

Friday Flags in Cheshire CT 5.03My good fortune with finding opportunities to share flags continues this week with a flag that stands in front of the Cheshire Volunteer Fire dept at its station near the intersection of Waterbury, Wolcott and Cheshire.With a little patience and a silent prayer to the wind gods, I was rewarded with a flurry of wind and a billowing flag.In a time when so much is taken for granted or even as due, recognizing the flag and the freedoms gotten by so many around the world is something we should not take for granted.Friday Flags in Cheshire CT 5.03 05/03/2024

Friday Flags in Cheshire CT 4.26I had to take a run to an appointment in Cheshire CT and passed an office structure with a large flagpole out front. I pulled into the parking lot and waited a bit to see if the wind would cooperate, and my pause was rewarded.The wind pushed that flag out and it gave me the opportunity to take the shot I wanted so I could continue my streak for this post.Friday Flags in Cheshire CT 4.26 04/26/2024

Friday Flags in Cheshire CTThe flag today comes from a plot of ground in front of a colonial structure that was once a thriving business.  Now called the Ball & Socket arts building, it offers attractions and areas to exhibit for local artists. In its heyday, it was a stamping plant that made all manner of buttons, some of which adorned the military uniforms during the Civil War.Back in the late 1980's the company was bought by Waterbury Companies and their museum was merged with that plants.A factory with a proud heritage and once the source of work for so many now has a different audience, but the flag still waves proudly.Friday Flags in Cheshire CT 04/19/2024
