I’ve been driving, walking and riding by this shop for 23 years, now.  And I figured I finally needed to pay them their due.

It’s a little Vietnamese repair garage in the Midway.  And on top of the building is a flagpole.  And atop the flagpole is Old Glory.

And below it…

…even 35  years after the fall of Saigon, is the old Republic of Vietnam flag.

They had one for many years that finally got ripped to shreds in the wind.  So this year they replaced it.  The Stars and Stripes are brand new and im-friggin-maculate.

More immigrants like this, please.
