  • Your first record album was "Lawrence of Arabia" and we rode our bikes all the way to Sears on Lake St. to get it. Who am I?

  • Very informative. These flags are some of our state's most important treasures. I didn't know the great care that was needed to preserve these flags. Thanks for posting.
