His shop is in Leesburg...352-326-5477.

I have one of his bronze, fixed length poles with a brass eagle on the top...lighted and flying 24/7.

I agree there are not enough flags flying here in TV....probably the least number of flags in any area we have lived in....what a shame!!

BTK,

I am glad that you refer to lighting the flag. I have several neighbors who leave their flags out 24/7 without lighting at night. I was taught that that doesn't show respect for the stars and stripes.
