So judgmental

100% agree with posters who said to mind your own business. What next, people need to hang a cross on their RV door to prove they have religion?

I consider myself a very patriotic person, I thank those who serve every chance I get and pray every night for those whose lives have been lost.

But I do not fly an American flag when I'm camping. "Even when it 's Veteran's or Memorial Day". I hope I never camp next to you.

Personally, Old Glory flies proudly at home every day. Actually, two of them do. Thing is, when camping (at the race track) I tend to take out as little as possible.... because it will have to get packed up at the end. The rear door has a flag though. Top left, above all sponsor stickers.

Nice thing is the light rotates with the pole. Solar powered. Usually lasts all night.

Sorry for the sideways pics, I can't figure out why?

I'm behind enemy lines (NY) and always fly an all weather 4x6 flag in front of my house (illuminated) and 3x5 on my truck. Most of my block flies the flag, some illuminated, some not. I'm happy to see others flying old glory, but don't care if they don't. I will be flying one when we start camping; again, thats my preference and everyone is free to make their own decision.

I fly a Marine Corps flag or an American flag. It's not lit.

Amen to that.


Last trip to the boondocks I set up my trailer, part of which is to hoist the flagpole with an all weather american flag and an army flag below it.

Flagpole is lighted with a solar/battery powered light mounted on it's top.

I was all alone for the first night and the second day a few other campers in tents moved in nearby. Following morning they told me that the light on my flagpole "bothered them" during the night.

Here I was, camped out in the middle of at least 20,000 acres of vacant land with hundreds of other great tent spots, and they chose to set up their tents next to my trailer.

Told them to just sleep with their faces pointing away from the bothersome light. (insert "freeway driving finger" emoticon here)

Never did understand what compelled them to camp so close when the entire area was about a mile wide and three miles long with all kinds of nice flat, sandy, spots for a tent. Maybe they're from the "big city" and being isolated makes them insecure.
