Today, the flag of the State of California flies in celebration of the state’s admission to the Union on September 9, 1850.
California Government Code § 420 describes the flag, stating (in part), “The Bear Flag is the State Flag of California. As viewed with the hoist end of the flag to the left of the observer there appears in the upper left-hand corner of a white field a five-pointed red star with one point vertically upward and in the middle of the white field a brown grizzly bear walking toward the left with all four paws on a green grass plot, with head and eye turned slightly toward the observer; a red stripe forms the length of the flag at the bottom, and between the grass plot and the red stripe appear the words CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC.”
Also flying today for Tara and Shaun, in celebration of their 18th anniversary as a couple, is the flag of the City of Chicago
