We made a little trip down into Middle Tennessee the last three days.  We took a short cut from Smithville to Woodbury and found that we had never gone that way before.  Beautiful countryside.   We hit a few yard sales in and around Murfreesboro.  I bought some small antiques including a 48-star American flag.  They quit making those in 1959 when Alaska became a state. They only made the 49-star flags for a few months and then Hawaii became a state and they had to come up with a 50-star design.  Guess which one is a rare collector's item. Howard
