Alright Chenoa, you did pretty good this year, but I did not see as many flags as we should see. I realize the weather may play part of the reason, but come on Chenoa, next year let's see lots of flags. When someone from out of town drives thru, let's let them know that we are proud citizens of a town that cares.
See you next year, have a safe and happy celebration.
