Just wanted to post this image of the American Flag in celebration of the 4th of July holiday!!! This image shows a portion of the The Howard S. Stainton Memorial Causeway or the 9th Street Bridge as it is commonly called. This bridge links Somers Point, NJ., Route 52 into Ocean City, NJ. over the Great Egg Harbor Bay. (as Ocean City is a barrier island with the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the back bay on the west). This project was completed in 2012 at a cost of $400 million dollars. The bridge is 2.2 miles in length and is a four (4) lane highway which includes a pedestrian and bicycle path, fishing piers and a beautiful welcome center. This image was shot from the Ocean City, NJ Welcome Center and in the distance you can see the Longport, NJ/Ocean City, NJ causeway.

That is really a great shot, Laura. I love Old Glory flying, the view across the water, and the gorgeous cloud filled sky. Have a safe and happy 4th.

Gorgeous shot with the American Flag and the POW-MIA flag flying for Independence Day, Laura. As we celebrate our Independence, let's hope for peace throughout the world; an end to hate. I wish we all could just get along and life happy.

I'm glad that they included the POW/MIA flag as a reminder. Great shot! I'd love to live near the shore! (Do you live near a beach? I'd be envious)
