Last winter we explored the American South West and spent a good deal of time boondocking (dry camping without hookups) out in the desert. One cool thing I noticed was how many folks had a flag poleon the rig and were flying all kinds of various flags. I think it may have started with the ATV and dune buggy crowds as you need a flag on your buggy or ATV to be seen in the hilly dunes. I guess it was a natural to also fly one or more on the RV. Or maybe it’s because the desert can seem so vast you feel like a ship at sea. A land yacht if you will.
I LOVE that flagpole, Ray! The ones I’ve looked at were around $160 US…so no pole for me, yet! I love how small that one breaks down. In a C, every inch counts!! 🙂
We bought a happy face flag while we were in Ontario. (3×5) Could not get a Canadian flag in that size as they are not made that small…as per a flag manufacturer … Now we need a flag pole … Ray I like your Jimmy Buffet flag so if you don’t mind if a find one I’m going to get one…-:)
I think this is a great idea and will help the grandkids spot our RV if we ever take them on the road. I found this great site that sells both flags and telescoping poles. Prices are very reasonable — less than Camping World. Flags include Canada, USA, all the states, plus all kinds of others. http://www.polesandholders.com/home.php

we got this flagpole for under $50 and so far it worked great. I made a mount for it out of some old PVC tube and zip-tie it at the top of the ladder for additional support..
