In my old town, we had several in the area, and there were often news articles about an association saying no to the color of paint that a homeowner had repainted their house with, no to the garage door being opened so the kids could play, and we even had our own flag story or two. When I rent, I follow the landlord's rules. When I buy a house, I'd prefer to take care of my house by my own preferences, not those of a committee - providing, of course, I do it safely and legally. :)<br /><br />Thanks for some great "food for thought."SandwichINK Real Estate Infohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10226278262485361447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-328383077464965059.post-62907985160227566132010-08-13T10:11:33.115-05:002010-08-13T10:11:33.115-05:00Beautifully said!

I saluate every service man or woman who fought and are currently fighting to keep America free. Thank you for the wonderful post. Also, did not realize until now your current state is Illinois. I am originally from Illinois. I lived there all my life, til I moved to Georgia in 1992. It is my desire to go home, next summer.

He is a hero, and it's shameful that in this country, someone would be told to take down the flag.<br />I just saw something on AOL about some kids who were told not to sing the National Anthem at the Lincoln Memorial. None of it makes sense. <br />Glad he stood up for his beliefs!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289456727508305342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-328383077464965059.post-82306706658187779212010-08-11T20:47:43.632-05:002010-08-11T20:47:43.632-05:00Susan,

It's time we all begin to do this a little bit more and stop allowing the small minority groups in this country completely rewrite what our country has been founded on. <br /><br />If more of us stand up, they wouldn't likely push so much of their agendas through and it's time to stop waiting for someone else to do it first. One person can make a difference. It's something we need to remember. <br /><br />Love your take on Thankful Thursday and think I may just follow suit tomorrow as well.<br /><br />Love and Hugs ~ KatHeart2Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05240536955573366802noreply@blogger.com
