Belgian Days

It's Belgian Days this weekend,

Preparations began almost a year ago and really ramped-up this last week.  Now we're in the thick of it with the finale scheduled for today.

I'll publish a recap post when I have time.  For now there us this.

The national flag of Belgium is a tricolor consisting of three equal vertical bands displaying the national colors of Belgium: black, yellow, and red. The colors were taken from the coat of arms of the Duchy of Brabant, and the vertical design may be based on the flag of France.

Neither of us share a single drop of Belgian blood; nevertheless to honor our neighbors with Belgian ancestry this time of year we fly the Belgian colors.
