A Cowboy’s Sunday Tradition: Riding with the American Flag
In a heartwarming display of patriotism and tradition, Clint Sparks, a 65-year-old cowboy from Palmer, Texas, has been riding his horse, Dakota, to a highway overpass every Sunday morning for nearly a decade. Clad in classic Western attire, Sparks proudly waves the American flag as passing vehicles honk and wave in return.
