Flag Day

I didn't even know what "Flag Day" was until I had a friend whose birthday fell on it. "June 14," he said. "It's really easy to remember, because it's Flag Day."

Sure.



But they sure celebrate Flag Day at Story Hour! Look at the pre-4th of July patriotism-inducing revelry that's going on here! It's enough to make you want to drive a tank into a foreign country and occupy it in the name of "Manifest Destiny" or "Our National Strategic Interests".

Well, it's at least enough to make me hungry for apple pie.

Evelyn was so caught up in the moment that she led the parade through the library whilst tapping two sticks together in time for the marching. She does love a parade.
