I've seen the view from the top on a show here, and it's essentially just room for one person up there. The flag is used for one day, and replaced by another. That day's flag ends up sent to the next person on a list in the country who has requested it, and that list goes on now for years.<br /><br />@Peter: definitely!<br /><br />@Bill: I agree.<br /><br />@Carol: thanks!<br /><br />@Marleen: definitely!William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-85802721711256982242018-12-18T16:35:39.206-05:002018-12-18T16:35:39.206-05:00This is beautiful.
