This is another beautiful submission from our readers in our Gratitude project’s goal of raising 1,000 stories of gratefulness on why Oregonians are thankful to live in America.
“When returning to the USA from living in Europe, one of the first things I noticed was the proud display of American flags. Not only on civic buildings, as is usual in European countries, but on homes, cars, displays of many kinds. All representing the honor we Americans feel to live in the greatest country in the world.”
