I just wanted to take a moment to wish all of my American readers a Happy Memorial Day! Here is a collection of beautiful, patriotic images in celebration of the unofficial start of summer. I hope you all enjoy a day filled with relaxation, family, friends and good old fashioned barbecue!

All of these pictures are beautiful, but I think it’s important to point out a very important detail. The first picture shows a girl draped in the flag with the flag puddling on the ground. This is very poor flag etiquette, as the flag should never touch the ground. This is very disrespectful.
It is never patriotic to let the flag touch the ground. Or to use it as a coverup.
oh yea, you are so international, I’m sure of it…
@Cyndia @Connie Thanks so much for pointing this out – You are totally right and I actually didn’t even think about this when I posted this photo. It was never my intention to be unpatriotic or disrespect such an iconic symbol of our American heritage. I will definitely be more mindful of things like this when I post images in the future. Thanks again for your comments and for reading!
you still haven’t removed that picture… now while it is borderline to drape yourself in the flag, it is highly disrespectful to have the flag touch the ground it soils the flag’s purity.
The first pictured woman needs to get the flag off the ground. That isn’t patriotic that is disrespectful. Please either remove the pic or get Ol’ Glory squared away thank you.
